Exactly Shake , the topic is emotionally charged enough . No need to bring another element into the mix. I don't care if it's a lie or not. Some pretty weird amazing shit has happened to me over the years , that I wouldn't expect most people to believe. Maybe that dude was here , maybe some folks did run into him , or maybe we saw his face so many bloody times on the news , that people transposed his image onto their own "middle eastern scary guy encounter". False memories are soo powerfull , that it's no use arguing with someone about it , because they "know" that it happened to them. He is no longer a threat to us , however , the world is still a scary place . I sure am glad to be in Canada , I just hope that we can , someday soon , go back to the widely respected , non meddling , peace loving country that we were in the recent past....
It works on a personal , day to day level , as well as on a Global Level. Be nice to folks , don't interfear with their lives , and we all get along much better. The US has been going against this simple rule for over 60 years now....."as ye sow , so shall ye reap!". It's all boiling over now , they made that bed , and now they , and to a lesser extent , the rest of their allies , have to sleep in that shitty bed.
