I definitely remember pictures that supposedly showed POWs, cant claim to have seen that one. I cant claim to remember that particular one.

Then again, it seems that there were certain things that were reported in one region but not another like a fake story was being tested.

There is footage of a “terrorist boot camp” that you may have seen. There are two guys in that lighter colored almost white middle eastern type garb with pants and a dish towel on their face and one of the ones in the black moslem ninja outfit. The camera is down in the sand, the two lighter trainees run across beams over our left and right shoulders but the MEninja almost falls on his beam right in front of us.

I dont remember if I first saw it in the late 80s or early 90s but I saw it over and over until rather more recently. One time its in Syria, another time its in Lebanon or Iran, Im pretty sure it was once somewhere here in the US.

Same 3 terrorist trainees running the same course. Over 20 or 30 years of falling repeatedly you would think that the MEninjas shins would be really banged up. If youre still in basic training after 20 years you should probably consider a new career field.

Its weird, its almost like none of that was true.

I remember hearing a number of other stories that it seems no one else in the country heard. No, I didnt misunderstand, it was a whole segment where the information was repeated more than once. Afterwards no one else remembers hearing that or documentation afterwards says that this story couldnt be true.

I dont think its a particularly new phenomena. There was someone that would deliver news around here on the radio and some of the old timers remembered hearing some rather unusual things. My dad remembered the daily stories of so many tanks being destroyed during the war that Germany must have been made of entire mountains of wrecked hulls. Speaking of hulls, the day it was reported that we sank the German “flat top” was one of excitement at the time at least it was until they realized Germany didnt have an aircraft carrier.

Have you ever seen any of the stories about mysteries of stories that ran in newspapers about ships sinking the day before they sank in one paper but no where else or maybe a detailed story on a ship was reported as having returned in one place but then the ship was reported missing?

The farther you do back the stranger some of the stories get.

Im convinced that a great deal of what has been reported since the news industry has started was entirely nonsense with an occasional accidental telling of truths that no one was supposed to know.
