Excellent comments, FN!! It certainly appears that Gilbert was tasked with the job of creating yet another false life for Zero; perhaps with good intentions but WND’s reputation is going to get tarred badly, which is as you note, not a good thing. I wonder if Farah or those who work for him realized what’s going on. I would suppose they do; I don’t think they’re stupid.
“Poor man’s Michael Moore” - that’s good! I haven’t seen a photo of Gilbert but that’s probably just as well. Had a peek into his mind and that was more than enough.
I realize that in war, sometimes duplicity and secrets and false info are needed to defeat the enemy. But this nonsense is the wrong way to go about fighting. Lies should be fought with truth, not more lies. Besides that, those who like 0bastard are not going to either believe or care about Gilbert’s little mockumentary. All it’s really done is create problems and dissension for those who don’t like Zero.
You can't tell what's in a BOOK by looking at the cover, but you can tell a lot about people from how they choose to present themselves...
