Tovarish 0 Posted July 30, 2002 I thought This article was somewhat interesting, but can anyone else see what's wrong with the picture of the Ak-47 they chose for it? sheesh! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted July 30, 2002 You mean besides that its not an Ak47 at all? lol Hell, Ive seen CNN call a C130 a 'Combat Jet' I swear to God Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tovarish 0 Posted July 30, 2002 Lol I've seen that too Tex, it's not just CNN, the Ottawa Sun here in Canada did the same once. I guess these guys figured all weapons designed by Kalashnikov bear the designation "AK-47" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralphwiggum 6 Posted July 30, 2002 here's what we can expect: scenario: a big mushroom-like cloud is seen during bombing. smart ass reporter #1: shit! they are using a-bombs! smart ass reporter #2: no you idiot! that's nuke! smart ass reporter #3: you guys are really out of date! that's those miniature carryable nuke backpack exploding! miltary expert: no..that's Daisy cutter. smart ass reporter #1,#2,#3: no you idiot! it's amazing that they don't even know how Ak-47 looks like.

Tovarish 0 Posted July 30, 2002 I'm sure he was very well taken care of by the Soviet state, even if he did not get paid directly. Hell if he did he'd probably rival Bill Gates in wealth. Now...well the guy is a sort of celebrity. I'd assume he gets paid for public appearences such as the one they mentioned in the interview. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USSoldier11B 0 Posted July 31, 2002 Did you know that Kalishnikov is an NRA member? Agreed that CNN sucks. CNN = Clinton News Network I stick to Fox News, they are much more objective and independant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
