If you and I both know they are, why should I try to prove it? What *is* your point? That they have an excuse? That they can't be *proven* guilty? Once again the lowest common denominator is "what you can get away with".

My point is that while to you, what you say is the truth, they could honestly think they are telling the truth, in that case its not likely but Isreal/palastine would be a better exmaple, the truth is amazingly hard to nail down.

Originally a *brand* was the trademark that connected a products to the reputation of its maker. The idea that a brand should be "developed" is pure hokum....reputations are things that should be *earned* rather than forged or manufactured though propiganda.

Well, things change. Brands now are developed as much as anything else, image of a product changes all the time to target different demographics etc and reputations can be bought.
