I didn't get the reference either, then while listening to Morning Edition yesterday I heard the story. I had the same reaction the Palestinian journalist did. They made a good point though, how is something like that not properly vetted to begin with? We've got people making up Wikipedia entries that go unnoticed for years and we've got athletes creating fictitious dead girlfriends to garner attention. What else is fictitious? I mean, if the Bicholim Conflict isn't real (see previous link) what else isn't? The war of 1812 always seemed suspicious to me.
