I couldn't find a mention of this on CNN or MSNBC-WTF someone shoots at two of our marines and it isn't important enough to report?

Reuters captioned this as being a picture of US troops "on patrol":

Well Reuters finally got on it:

A spokesman said that they were at a "worksite" with some Philippine soldiers when they were fired on. |
