There is also just confusion that happens in a chaotic and swiftly changing situation. We have to try to verify and I'll try harder next time. I did look it up, but I didn't research it deep enough. Without endless time, it is hard to avoid all mistakes.

I've done so myself on occasion not thinking that it would be misinfo, so I'm not as quick ass-ume others are doing it knowingly :(

I fully trust you are in the latter camp, Arie.

But, it would be good to quote post a correction.

Yes, I don't always research everything I see online. Because often it is just opinion. But in this case, I did look it up and found references to it from this year, so I assumed it was legit. As a former journalist in conflict areas, I know confusion is normal. I deleted it.

I hear you. It's critical for us not to allow others to cause division.

I think she got it b/c she liked my comment about people making mistakes and not ass-uming the worst, and that I trusted you; which was really directed at her as well as you.

I took that as an apology to you, but since we can't see who likes others comments but our own, I thought you should know.

That said, her initial comment was unjustified everything considered.

I looked at the profile and it looks sketchy to me, given those reactions. I spent too much time on this today. I think we have better priorities. I am a single mother, and the research takes a while. I don't spend that much time online. But my background is in journalism and I try to be accurate.
