The “victims were allowed to writh”.

You weren’t skewered for having the audacity to question the story. The Times simply reported that you and other like-minded bloggers have marked this story as evidence of the media’s misreporting of the mayhem in Iraq. They further stated that some people strongly believe that the bad news from Iraq is the fabrication of partisan journalists bent on ending support for the war. The Times even seems to question the story in that they ask why there haven’t been any Sunni denunciations about this most horrific act. They were straight down the middle in reporting the fallout from the AP story. The Times wasn’t smug. You on the other hand come across as smug.
