This is ridiculous....

   ....AP [1]published a picture yesterday that showed a Palestinian
   terrorist (AP calls him a "militant", of course) firing at Israeli
   troops. There were two young children, a teenager and an adult
   standing within inches of the terrorist while he fired an automatic
   weapon.
   Realizing that this probably didn't look too good, AP republished the
   photo with a new caption.

     RETRANSMITTING ORIGINAL FULL FRAME FOR CONTEXT TO SHOW THAT PEOPLE
     IN BACKGROUND ARE NOT DIRECTLY IN THE LINE OF FIRE â A Palestinian
     militant fires toward Israeli troops during an arrest raid in the
     West Bank village of Qabatiyeh near Jenin, Tuesday, Aug. 8, 2006.
     Four Palestinians were wounded when the army arrested an Al-Aqsa
     Martyrsâ Brigades militant, Palestinians sources said. The army
     said two Islamic Jihad militants were arrested during the
     operation. (AP Photo/Mohammed Ballas)

   In the full frame, you can see three more young boys.
   I suppose their UN observers.
