She said they held machineguns on her. In case you never read my previous notes on the matter, I did all the background automatic weapons fire for John Wayne's "The Green Beret".

They wanted the "best", and there I was to do the job.

Anyway, a machinegun in the hands of an expert doesn't "spew bullets" as the leftwingnuts say. Instead, it delivers finely counted bursts of 3 and bursts of 4, on target.

Now there's no Arab in the world that's as good as I was at my peak, and there's likely no Arab in the world who even comes close to my present level of proficiency ~ but I'll tell you what, I have the greatest respect for any automatic weapon in almost anyone's hands.

The woman was right to be fearful.

You have no right to suggest she wasn't.

Gee, I thought I had a right to express my opinion.

I never said she shouldn't be fearful. My opinion is she had nothing to fear because I think she is a terrorist sympathizer.

Now the media is hailing her release like it matters.

You don't like that opinion, fine. You don't need to convert me to your way of thinking.

BTW your background was interesting.I remember that movie.

Good morning.
"I did all the background automatic weapons fire for John Wayne's "The Green Beret"."

What a small world.! You did the background AW fire for the Green Berets, and I and my teammates threw beer cans at the outdoor screen, made rude noises and listened to .50 fire down the berm while watching the very same movie.

None of which has any bearing on whether she lied or not, or even whether you or I could recognize her lying.
