I agree. It seems to me that if it really were a wedding party, they would have video footage of people celebrating and then a bomb falling on them. People may be dirt poor in Afghanistan, but Osama bin Laden proved that they do have video cameras there.

Well, I don't know about video cameras. ObL is a wealthy Saudi with a multimillion-dollar criminal enterprise at his disposal.

These were supposedly just a bunch of hick villagers.

But still, it would be too easy to drum this up, including photos, etc.

Mind if I e-mail this around, Sally?

Some friends and I have been discussing the way so many people will believe anything these days, and I've been arguing that public education has lowered the Gullibility Index.

I think once they see your post, it'll be game, set n' match to ol' By.
