If I have to chose between what is reported and what your wild imagination has come up with, I’ll have to go with what is reported
Please enlighten us on what exactly my wild imagination has come up with.
YOU have nothing but second hand info relayed through the MSM the Internet and the Gub'ment.
All three of those are notoriously unreliable. Period.
My position is clear I trust no one involved in the situation on either side of the argument and especially anyone who claims that sources based on the three mentioned above are the gospel.
The bottom line is that the Gub'ment is manipulating the situation to achieve a certain goal. The only issue in that question that is in dispute is just how far they have gone in their attempt to manipulate the story. And thems the facts Sparky!
