Big Al Whittle, I sincerely hope that these incidents are not the first times, that it should occur to you, that our governments have lied to us! as well as your Congresspersons and Senators, claimed that they 'didn't know that the reports were false' and were ONLY going by the intelligence reports!
Did you ever believe ANY of that poppycock? Ever???
It was contrived from the very beginning!
This, by now, should be obvious!
