This sounds like someone is melding together three or four stories, adding in rumor, and a dash of hopeful lies.
If “spitting” like this thing claims happened, I’ll bet it was only once and was done by locals who were maybe later running jobs with some Americans.
If it’s actually true, as written, then I think it’s great. Apologies, but I do.
There is a torture place of which we have been warned. Those who think it's great get to go there forever. Be careful.
Bet they were tasty!
