But dear what will you accept then? We cannot have terrorists to join the forum and share those details with you now, can we?You don't know the ways of the world. For example Indian media says that in 2002 Gujarat riots, 2000 people died.
Years later I would think, "In 1984 anti-Sikh riots, in a single city of Delhi, 3000 were killed. In 2002 Gujarat riots, the whole state was burning, yet only 2000 were killed! How come?" Such instances put question mark on the credibility of media.
Then two of my Muslim friends revealed to me that the real death toll in Gujarat riots was 20,000-30,000.
Now you understand why such word of mouth is more trustworthy.
I am not a believer of media either, very much against them most of the times but in this case, we have to hear to what reports coming out of Afghanistan say, what the terrorists captured mention, that is all we have.
