Drudge Promotes Romney Anti-Mideast Peace Story With Photo Of An Arab Child Holding A Toy Gun

Mother Jones released a video today that shows Mitt Romney saying “there’s just no way” to achieve Middle East peace. “The pathway to peace is almost unthinkable to accomplish,” Romney said, adding, “we kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve it.” The popular right-wing news aggregator the Drudge Report picked up the story, and here’s the photo the website chose to include::

Credit for the photo belongs to the Associated Press, which described it as follows: “A boy holds a toy gun during a protest about a film ridiculing Islam’s Prophet Muhammad in the Palestinian refugee camp of Ain el-Hilweh near Sidon, Lebanon, Friday, Sept. 14, 2012.”
