    That was never a question right?

      Well the US government tried to deny it was a school at first, so that's put to bed at least.

        The US even said it was Iran who did it. The US has literally become the least trustworthy nation in the world by lying about everything, threatening to go to war against allies for no other reason than wanting the land...

            If the only thing you care about is money, you truly have a sad existence of a life.

          Overstated.

          It was never given as a fact.

          Was literally "in my opinion" speculation. A dumb opinion? Okay. But not statement of fact.

            This has very little value when everything gets prefaced with "in my opinion". Government officials should be held to a higher standard when it comes to releasing these types of statements.

              Especially when the whole point of such lies is to kill the story before it gets much public interest. A device the sunny state of Israel uses all the time and to great effect.

              I don’t commonly hear that.

              Just in the instance that was chosen.
