Article here: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/27/world/middleeast/27syria.html?_r=1&oref=slogin Well, our boys at AGW (a Warbirds forum) discussed, investigated, and wondered. And one of the boys did a great overlay, comparing the two (pre-strike and post-strike) images. And guess what? Yep .. same image, apparently photoshopped. Gotta love it. Discussion thread is here (hope it doesn't get slashdotted): http://agw.bombs-away.net/showthread.php?t=69581 And the animated overlay graphic is here: http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c161/Naja — /lesson-gif.gif Now to see how humble the NY Times becomes, when some bleedin' amateurs outdo the serious analysts.
