(101 posts)47. Malcolm Nance has no proof that was the plan....
he only conjured out of his Zionist brain. People like Nance and Hal Sparks go all nuts in the head to do mental gymnastics used to deflect criticism of Israel. Its pathetic.

It's not unusual to talk about media figures in that way. And he's only posted 5 or 6 times, so

Israel did lie. It lied about the advanced, multi-story, well-equipped "Command and Control Centre" it touted.
