France’s Agence France Presse news service continues waging their own little Gallic Tet Offensive, with another blatantly anti-American caption grafted onto another photo plucked from Getty Images:

US Marines give first aid to a slightly wounded comrade on April 8 in the flashpoint town of Fallujah, 50 km west of Baghdad. Pictures of body bags and groups of US soldiers praying around dead comrades are creeping into American media coverage of Iraq, highlighting the growing unease at events(AFP/Getty Images/File/Cris Bouroncle)

Here’s the original.

FALLUJAH, IRAQ: US Marines give first aid to a slightly wounded comrade 08 April 2004 in the flashpoint town of Fallujah, 50 km west of Baghdad. The death toll from clashes between US forces and insurgents in Fallujah has reached 105 and more than 200 people have been wounded.

Notice how the Axis of Weasels cannot even be bothered to hide their editing, with no punctuation at the end of their scurrilously added sentence.

UPDATE: Even the mighty Allah begs for hat tips from Lizardoid HQ! Bwahahaha!
