Susan, come on, don't be Sohail's fool!

There is a kindergarten story about a guy who enters a coffee house (most probably somewhere in the Middle East), sits down at an empty table and orders a slice of cherry cake. When the waiter serves him the cake, he tells him that he changed his mind and would prefer to have an apple pie. The waiter takes back the cherry cake and brings him the apple pie. The guy eats up the apple pie and starts to the door to leave without paying. The waiter runs after him and asks him to pay for the cake he ate.

-"What cake?" asks the guy.

-"The apple pie you just finished!" said the waiter.

-"But I got the apple pie in return for the cherry cake".

-"Then pay for the cherry cake!" demanded the waiter.

-"I didn't eat any cherry cake in this place, and please stop harassing me!" shouted the guy, pushed the waiter out of his way, and left "angrily".

Well, I am telling you this story just because it is obvious that Sohail, and the rest of his terror apologist gang are using the same kind of infantile deception technique for "eating the pie, and not paying for it". And what really amazes me is that people of otherwise intelligent appearance consent to go patiently in endless circles with these professional liars.
