An acquaintance of mine is a Syrian Christian whose family escaped the country several years ago. They suffered quite heavily due to religious persecution. I’d like to see you dare to tell him or his family that they’re lying about their accounts after all they had to endure.

You are desperately trying to portray things in a lilly-white manner that is fundamentally disconnected from the reality, and you’re sticking by it simply because you need it to justify your unrealistic perspective.
