Wow! ABC News is trying to pass gun range videos as combat footage from Syria pic.twitter.com/zfTWtwwSfZ — Wojciech Pawelczyk (@Woj_Pawelczyk) October 14, 2019 Here is the 2016 Knob Creek video which was uploaded in 2017. It sure looks like the same video, right down to the formation of the little white lights in the foreground, which are the cell phones of the people watching the shoot. You can see them clearly in the video. It’s possible this video was included by mistake, but knowing how the mainstream media operates, I doubt that very much.

CORRECTION: We’ve taken down video that aired on “World News Tonight" Sunday and “Good Morning America” this morning that appeared to be from the Syrian border immediately after questions were raised about its accuracy. ABC News regrets the error. — Good Morning America (@GMA) October 14, 2019 Share Post Writer at RedState MBA, former financial consultant, options trader Mom of three grown children, grandmother Email Elizabeth at [email protected] Read more by Elizabeth Stauffer Recommended Shocker: NY Times Absolutely Shreds Joe Biden for Hiding From the Media Bob Hoge SHOCKING: Pro-Hamas Protest Leader Suggests Murdering Jews While Negotiating With Columbia Officials Bonchie Biden Makes Bizarre Remark About Schumer, and Despicable Comment About Police Officers Killed on Duty Nick Arama Southwest Airlines to Shed 2,000 Employees, End Service at 4 Airports As Boeing Delays Smack Bottom Line Bob Hoge Wild Video of NYU Protesters Chasing and Surrounding NYPD Shows How Out of Control Things Are Getting Nick Arama 'Snapped,' Throwing Menstrual Pads: The Tale of VP Harris' Brawling Secret Service Agent Just Got Weirder Brittany Sheehan Join the conversation as a VIP Member Login to Leave a Comment Trending on RedState Videos Advertisement Trending 1 Shocker: NY Times Absolutely Shreds Joe Biden for Hiding From the Media 2 SHOCKING: Pro-Hamas Protest Leader Suggests Murdering Jews While Negotiating With Columbia Officials 3 Biden Makes Bizarre Remark About Schumer, and Despicable Comment About Police Officers Killed on Duty 4 Southwest Airlines to Shed 2,000 Employees, End Service at 4 Airports As Boeing Delays Smack Bottom Line 5 Wild Video of NYU Protesters Chasing and Surrounding NYPD Shows How Out of Control Things Are Getting Moore to the Point - Heard Immunity Susie Moore Friday Morning Minute Susie Moore Iran-Backed Militias Incite the Raging Pro-Hamas Protests at US Universities, Mock America Bob Hoge Pro-Hamas US Students Lose the Plot As Iranian Rap Artist Faces Death Sentence Brittany Sheehan Relax: There Are No Spiders From Mars Ward Clark WATCH: Fed-Up NYC Construction Worker Has a Very New Yorker Message for Joe Biden Sister Toldjah Advertisement
