#1 File this under "find a funeral for the anaugeration" reporting.

Davis says he created crisispictures.org because he doesnât feel Americans are getting the whole picture from Iraq

They are. Their sources include ABC, NBC, CBS [which by the way is the source of this piece of crap], PBS, CNN, MSNBC, NYT, WoPo, AP, Al Rueters....

But its nice to have people put their names on the list voluntarily.

#2 This fella is apparently a front for the anti-war left. He is closely tied to lesbian media dog Rosie O'Donnell in some form or another.

No question in my mind the site is politicaly motivated. This could be the left's big stab to try to stampede an American withdrawl from Iraq before the job is done.

#3 From their About page:

What We Are

Crisis Pictures is a non-commercial organization dedicated to building awareness of global crisis areas through pictures. Our goal is to make distant events personal by showing real people living through them. The face of a mother mourning her child needs no explanation. Crisis Pictures makes âstories about other peopleâ into âstories about other people just like me."

Crisis Pictures is a public information service that is free and open to the public.

Our Position on Iraq

We are NOT against the war in Iraq.
We are NOT for the war in Iraq.

Therefore, they are against the war in Iraq.

We want YOU to examine your own conscience and decide if this is worth it. We encourage you to research other aspects of the story and then make up your mind.

If we must take a side, it is the side of the mother who has lost a child, whatever her nationality might be.

Do Pictures Lie?

Pictures don't tell lies, people tell lies. That being said, this is not is it the whole story nor does it claim to be. . It is an aspect of the truth that is not shown elsewhere.

All of our pictures come from verifiable, legitimate sources which we pay licensing fees.

Who do you work for?

Crisis Pictures is not affiliated with any political organization or cause. We are neither Democrat, nor Republican.

Actually they are affiliated with Air America, and with Rosie O'Donnell, and whomever she fronts for.

#4 Not for, not against. The Swis were neutral too, but were bankers.

Are they for or against democracy?

Sure the face of a mother mourning her child needs explanation - it's called "nuance."

#5 Well, whoever they are they don't want us to know. They're registered through domainsbyproxy.com.

#6 They may not want the world to know who they are, but I know for a definitive fact the server that serves their pages is on the same basic network segment as airamericaradio.com The server is out of New York at Globix Corporation, the same folks that host airamericaradio.

My thinking is this fella is not operating 'on a shoestring budget' and is by no means independant.
