Marines discover Iraqi 9/11 mural

NASIRIYA, Iraq (CNN) -- U.S. Marines searching Iraqi military headquarters in this southern city that was the site of intensive fighting came across a mural depicting a plane crashing into a building complex resembling New York's twin towers, a news agency photograph showed Wednesday.

The plane's logo and coloring resembled that of Iraqi Airlines, said Getty Images News Service executive Brian Felber, based in New York.

The photograph, showing two rifle-toting Marines in front of the mural, was shot by staff photographer Joe Raedle, who is accompanying the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force from Task Force Tarawa.

Getty is a news photo agency that distributes about 500 photographs from around the world each day and has 10 staff members embedded with U.S. forces in the Iraq conflict.

Felber said this photo was "causing a bit of a stir."

They had to come up with SOMETHING in order to make people believe them. I'm not surprised.

They don't look like the twin towers or the Pentagon to me. I could be wrong though.

You think it is fake??

I'm just saying i wouldn't be surprised if it was
we live in war times after all...

I am a bit confused though Choc. How would this make people believe them? Iraq had nothing to do 9/11.

i know, and you know. but one of the reasons your administration is going to war was because bush said saddam was connected to the terrorists

Yes, it was mentioned many times by the warmongers that Iraq is connected to 911. It wasn't until people started saying 'hey, wait a minute, this can't be true because...' that the warmongers stopped telling this lie.

Not 9/11 though. At least from what I have read.

Although no one really knows except Saddam. I don't think he will be writing a tell-all book anytime soon. :P

i would like to read it though :P
