EDIT this is an old pic from iraq, not what I originally thought it was

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy that the Obidiot is giving Hamas 500 million dollars to build things like this with.

All that proves is that Israel, like Iran, has Photoshop.

Are you part of some Israeli info spreading group? If you search "palestinian garbage truck" right now you'll get a ridiculous number of forum hits with prettymuch EXACTLY your post:

And then I read this:

This is a system to direct exhaust gas from a matching manifold under the cab. Notice that you[HTML_REMOVED]#8217;ve never seen the lower back/bottom of the cab in ANY of the pictures. These same pictures were addressed in 2002, and these same trucks are still being used today, but not to launch rockets. This type of exhaust configuration is common on various types of dump trucks used around the world, to keep the contents hot, and/or keep the wet contents from freezing to the steel bed.

-from here

No idea how reliable that info is, but given the viral nature of the whole thing, I'd probably guess the whole rocket launcher thing is total fucking bullshit.

Not true.

A terrorist is one that uses terrorism as a tactic. Terrorism, although it lacks an accepted definition (because of politics) is committing acts of violence or making threats with the intent of spreading fear or terror in a third party audience.

That is terrorism. Doesn't matter what side the person is on that does it. There are terrorists you agree with, and terrorists you don't, but that doesn't make a terrorist you agree with anything other than a terrorist.

Been here (along with my Conservative views) far longer than most people….I am not surprised this has gone viral, as I found it on a very large (EXTREMELY right leaning) Corvette forum I am a member of.

Tell me how that bed could lift if it was attached to a manifold on the back of the cab? Hammas is very clever and could easily modify it to be used as a rocket launcher even if it was a heat manifold.

Whom evers side you take in regards to this conflict, the Palistinians firing of rockets at Israel and the treatment of the Palestinians by the Israelis is pathetic.

Yes, and they COULD be engineering a race of nuclear-powered dolphin warriors to enslave the Western world.

It was Iraqi, captured in Basra. That's a British APC in the background.

Thing about Neocons, they never let facts get in the way of telling their story.
