I heard about this on the radio and tv, too. The story was pretty much the same. The man won an award and acclaim for his math in Italy. Genius. He was writing math equations...numbers not Arabic. Facts speak to me. The whole incident was started by someone who knew nothing, but made allegations anyway. Why do you persist in defending that.
I’m not defending anything. It may have played out the way this propaganda describes. But I am not going to jump on the bandwagon until I see something fairly reported.
