This is a good read.

Take it for what you want or nothing at all.

haha, this apologist even rebutts Israel's admittance and apology that they hit the ambulance.

I like how his final statement is that "the media's credibility has been shot"

O MY GOD

I found it an interesting read.
However I'm not going to run aournd with my hair on fire screaming "OMG media conspiracy!!!" if it turns out to have been staged or mis-represented.
Never suspect conspiracy where incompetence is an adequate explanation.

I think we just found our next best-selling bumper sticker.

I really don't see where the incompetence is. Israel bombed an ambulance. Israel SAID it bombed an ambulance. Israel apologized for bombing an ambulance. The only people denying this are the American neoconservative apologist bloggers who somehow hope Israel will notice them and send them a fat briefcase full of cash too.

I have seen that around before, and it's fitting. I am not sure where it originated from though.

Based on the evidence the Israelis are using really shoddy weapons.

The incompetence is in the news reporting. The Israelis may well have shot the fuck out of that (or another) ambulance but based on those images the "omg missle right through the middle of the red cross" line, repeated ad nauseam by many news agencies, looks like it's innaccurate.
