It is amazing to me that anyone believes anything in the MSM anymore, especially where it concerns Iraq. They lie by both commission and omission, and they do it 24/7. In the propaganda war, they are definitely on the side of the terrorists, and against the USA.
The news that six Sunnis were captured by Shiites, doused with kerosine and burned alive, was too sensational to not be picked up by the mainstream media. But it turns out that the event never happened. Furthermore, the Iraqi “spokesman” relied on to give all information regarding this event is as fictional as the story itself.
Jamil Hussein, the man news reports called “police Capt. Jamil Hussein,” was the source for all information regarding the burning. Although he is mentioned by USA Today, the Associated Press, CBS News, and other outlets, Central Command says no such person exists. Centcom also asked the Associated Press to retract the story unless it has proof beyond Jamil Hussein’s word.
