Oops.

 

GI Joe has more uses after all.

 

 

What kind of twisted mind would come up with that type of hoax though?

A certain group of people comes to mind.

 

Edit: that sounded really bad, I meant anyone who does this sort of thing in real life probably wouldn't have any qualms about doing it with action figures.

I saw that picture in the newspaper today...it looked fishy to me...but the article was serious, so I assumed I was mistaken about the fasleness of the picture. I'm suprized there isn't more news coverage about it being a hoax. If I can tell then surely anone could.

 

edit: I expect the only media to take the pictur seriously is the tabloids. the headline reads: "US Military breeds new soldier with plastic head"

I guess the Mujahedeen are learning from Osama bin Laden, who got us to spend billions when he only spends enough to buy video tapes and flying lessons.

 

The media is a bit jumpy, imo.

i just think its funny that they couldnt notice, youd expect that theyd be smarter otherwise think what else they could get away with.

I saw an article in the Times today that the picture may have been a hoax...printed on page 20
