"An actual doctor and nurse also took part in the bloodless mission, along with members of the Colombian military who pretended to be an Italian, an Australian, an Arab, a Cuban and a Dominican, he said."

That reminds me of a joke I heard Obama tell: an actual doctor and nurse were in a helicopter with an Italian, an Australian, a Cuban and a Dominican.  The doctor was embarrassed because all he could say was ''Merci beaucoup.'

"The way that the images show the Red Cross emblem being used could be distinguished as a war crime,"

As opposed to say, using red cross vehicles as transportation for hamas fighters.

You mentioned Nancy Pelosi.

Last night, Jay Leno Streetwalk inadvertantly showed that even lame brain CA democrats have a negative response to her name. The response was that Pelosi is a politician caught in some sort of criminal activity.

The MSM/DNC would mirror their own mirror. But even jackasses sense the corruption trying to fool them.

Meanwhile, McCain's ratings rise, despite all the national/international expenses to convince CITIZENS OF THE WORLD that Obamarx is their man.

Jean-Francois Julliard, deputy director of the press advocacy organization Reporters Without Borders, said authorities can endanger journalists when they pose as members of the news media.

"We think it is a dangerous practice because it puts in danger real journalists," he said.

The next time a reporter approaches FARC rebels, he said, the FARC members "will be very suspicious and maybe they will take some physical measures against these journalists because they will think that they are not real journalists."

How is any of this a bad thing?  In fact I think the good guys should start using fake journalists in as many operations as possible.  Why you ask?  Well if the bad guys start thinking that reporters are spies and react accordingly then the reporters will lose access and the bad guys will lose a major outlet for their propaganda.  Win and win. 

Of course in the most dangerous parts of the world the MSM uses "stringers" who would not be affected because, near as I can tell, by "stringers" they mean members of the terrorist groups they are supposed to be covering.     

"We think it is a dangerous practice because it puts in danger real journalists," he said.

Just like real people are in danger when they meet with terrorist groups.

Isn't there some sort of US law (or maybe a CIA regulation) that expressly prohibits undercover agents from posing as reporters?

I'm too lazy to Google for it.

International legal expert Mark Ellis, executive director of the International Bar Association, said the use of the Red Cross symbol could endanger humanitarian workers and violate the Geneva Conventions.

"The way that the images show the Red Cross emblem being used could be distinguished as a war crime," he said

Since when do the Geneva Conventions apply to terrorist organizations like FARC?  How can it be a war crime when this is not a declared war?

Isn't there some sort of US law (or maybe a CIA regulation) that expressly prohibits undercover agents from posing as reporters?

Phew.  Good thing this happened in Columbia then!

Love the headline. 'Admits' heh.

If 'journalists' would see themselves less as citizens of the world and more as citizens of a country this would not be a 'problem'.

"Operation Check snatched 15 hostages from the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia by duping the rebels into believing that they were releasing the hostages to a humanitarian organization that would bring them to another rebel camp." 

Whoa!! Why is a "humanitarian organization" providing hostage transportation  for a terrorist organization?

Andrew,

Because FARC has been running fake Red Cross operations for quite a while.   That's their standard MO for transporting hostages.
