Ban The Bomb Photographers

From Think Progress:

Iraq bars photographers from scenes of bomb attacks.
“Iraq’s interior ministry has decided to bar news photographers and camera operators from the scenes of bomb attacks, operations director Brigadier General Abdel Karim Khalaf said on Sunday.” BarbinMD notes, “This follows the recent decision by the Iraqi government to no longer release civilian casualty figures. Toss in the U.S. policy of not including the victims of bomb attacks in casualty counts, and soon we will all be able to pretend that there is progress in Iraq.”


Because, y'know, it's going sooo well over there.
