OP here..FYI, I found this link from a usually reliable website(whatreallyhappened.com), which is why I gave it quick credence..it was not my intention to post false info..that said, I think this thread is interesting...please continue..

Can it just be said now that getting your news from any middle-eastern source is not a good idea.

They all twist the truth (or make it up) to suit their own ends.

This article is another case of that.

Come to think of it, American media is pretty much the same. So just don't believe any news.

/Thread lock time?

Apparently this thread isn't going anywhere.

Apparently ATS is the only community (considering the hundreds of hits this got on google) that has cared enough about having integrity to actually look into this.

The result, from numerous different perspectives and numerous members, has been that this story is completely false.

The comment made by the woman was never made, and indeed there has been difficulty even authenticating the woman's name with any sort of attachment to the Israeli goverment.

The only google hits on the comment OR the name are based on the very same HOAX article from a few months ago.

Unfortunately it seems that some people are either not reading the conclusions of this thread or have decided to disregard it and frankly that is disruptive.

At this point in time this thread will be closed pending the decisions of the owners of ATS as to whether or not a hoax tag will be applied.

Until a decision has been made, to be quite honest, there is no purpose in having any further replies debating something that by all accounts appears to be a complete falsehood.

A decision will be made by the owners of ATS within 24 hours. Until that time, this thread is closed.
