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

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.

Her apology should've been to you, I think she was just too embarrassed to do it.

I also just went down her page and it reads like prepubescent teen. There's no way she's at that level of education. Just a kid trying to impress people. Pretty sad.

*Yes, we've much more impt things to focus on
