5 Taliban Killed In 28 Seconds At OVER 1MILE ! More "Sniper" B.S.

[ratcatcher55]

Bill,

I think very little of what happens in the special warfare groups ever makes the news.

The media has no interest in what we do to the poor oppressed followers of Islam. They only want to report  KIA/WIA if it shows the military in a bad light.

When did you here anythiing about Iraq over the last few months except for bombings by internal factions?

I do agree The Sun is a rag.

When Canadian Corporal Rob Furlong established the longest sniper kill in history at 1.509 miles, it was the subject of a "60 Minutes" piece, and it was all over You Tube, as well as in several reliable military publications. And rightfully so, as it was an incredible feat that had witnesses, along with a ton of actual proof. This whole thing has little credibility because it only appears in a sensationalistic British rag. If it were factual enough to be backed up, I would think other, more reliable news sources would have picked up on it, as it would be even a greater accomplishment than Furlong produced. There are tons of articles about the M-4, and the issues it's been having. But this is picked up by no one. That causes suspicion much like the stories these type of rags run about aliens abducting Billy Bob from a Tennessee swamp at 2:00 AM, instead of landing on the front lawn of M.I.T. at 10:00 AM on a Monday.  Bill T.
