Re: Mika Yamamoto

Here's a vid as well. Looks like (and sources confirm) that she was shot in the arm and the throat. May have taken a round in the waist/legs as well. Can't tell if her pants are soaked in blood or something else.

Her violent death was a very public death.

Re: Mika Yamamoto

The video was originally published here http://www.facebook.com/ANN.AlepNews according to ANSA.
And it shows another japanese journalist (Kazutaka Sato) crying on her body.
He was desperate because he "couldn't save her". :(

There's another short (about 22 secs) video taken right before that one

Re: Mika Yamamoto

That son-of-a-bitch Assad has to go! It's too bad we have a pussy who calls himself commander in chief. I just don't understand how we as Americans can elect someone to the most powerful position on earth who; a.) never served in the armed forces b.) Never voted any legislation when he was in the Illinois senate c.) Has a dicey past including close acquaintances with convicted political felons (Tony Reszko, Rod Blagojevich) If ever there was a time for righteous indignation to step up and smash the shit out of a deserving asshole like Assad, now is it

Re: Mika Yamamoto

The FSA is backed by the Taliban and AL Qaeda, it's a no win situation, while Assad is definitely scum, to risk giving Al Qaeda a country to act as a base for international terrorism would be the worst disaster in recent history.
