It's becoming pretty clear that CNN, the AP, and the New York Times had freelance photojournalists embedded with Hamas on October 7. We have one who posted a selfie of himself being kissed on the cheek by the leader of Hamas. And we also have a video reportedly showing one of the freelancers riding on the back of a motorcycle and holding a grenade.

Washington Post columnist Megan McArdle thinks she can explain the grenade.

Seriously? Here, hold this grenade while I drive.

It sounds like these freelancers were deeply embedded in Hamas … as in helping out.

A Hamas terrorist handed me this rifle and told me to shoot Jews, and I certainly didn't want to make him angry by refusing.
