Snatching Defeat from the Jaws

Snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory - Hate site Democrats.com tries to impugn yesterday's famous pro-liberation demonstration in Baghdad, trying to pass it off as a small, controlled demonstration staged by the US.

Since Democrats.com always changes its front page around midnight eastern time, and never archives its lead stories (the better to avoid accountability), I'm going to snatch the picture for future reference:

Note the picture, that purports to show a tiny crowd gathered around the statue. The picture is shown without context, without timestamp, without any indication as to exactly when it was taken.

Compare the tiny crowd in the picture with the scenes you saw yesterday; does it look like the same group, at the same time, to you?

Ask yourself this; in a crowd that included the likes of Robert Fisk and the BBC World Service, do you think that a tiny little crowd could have been portrayed as a teeming mob, universally and without stint? Do you honestly think the world journalistic community is that dim and uninquisitive?

Am I wrong here? Let me know.
