Subject: CNN

Dear all,

Last September 13, I’ve sent an email to this list in which I provided
some information about the falsity of the images of Palestinian
celebration for the terrorism in USA, information given to me by a
teacher. I spent the last day looking for that teacher, and,
unfortunately, when I found her, she DENIED having access to such
images.

She said that she was sure she had seen the images back in 1991, but SHE
CAN’T PROVE. She was not willing to provide further information, DENYING
what she had said before to a full class of students.

I sincerely apologize for this uncertain information; unfortunately I
can’t prove the information contained in my last post; IT’S ONLY A
CONJECTURE, THAT THOSE IMAGES OF PALESTINIANS CELEBRATING IS FALSE. I
bought the idea myself, and reproduced it for you because of the
importance of it, in the case it was to be confirmed.

Whatever news I get I’ll pass to you.

Best regards

Márcio A. V. Carvalho
