I've had several conversations with friends about retweeting unverified Middle East propaganda. Most have been accepting that due diligence is important.

But one friend could not understand, despite me pointing to where major outlets like CNN say explicitly that "these reports are unverified."

When I showed him the videos of what's been going on in the US, he refused to believe it because major outlets hadn't reported the Arabic chants of "death to Jews."

We are now no longer friends.
