Terrorists Infiltrate Reuters - Not.

Apparently the Reuters correspondent in Falluja is "a known Zarqawi propagandist (who)is passing false reports to the media". His cameraman is obviously a terrorist too. And if you believe you own eyes, you may also be a terrorist:
A Reuters witness saw a man and a woman and four children, two boys and two girls, being pulled out of the rubble of a razed home in the rebel-held city of Fallujah, about 50 kilometres west of Baghdad.

The US military denied a family of six was killed, saying it launched four strikes against safehouses used by Zarqawi's fighters.

"Intelligence sources indicate a known Zarqawi propagandist is passing false reports to the media," it said in a statement.

Reuters television footage showed men chanting "There is no God but Allah!" as they carried the body of the father of the family of six.

"Is this the gift that [interim Iraqi Prime Minister] Iyad Allawi is giving to the people of Fallujah?" asked one man, pointing to the small bodies of two of the children lying in the trunk of a car. "Every day they strike Fallujah."
The US and Allawi forces continue to pound Falluja, demanding that residents hand over Al Zarqawi. But Falluja's remaining residents claim he is not in the city, and there is no firm evidence to prove them wrong.
