I received an e-mail about impending terrorism predicted by Jal Aviv. It goes something like this: a former Isreali intelligence officer/body guard who has 'recently' (2004) written a book about self-preservation and has predicted various terrorists acts (ie., London bombing, 2005) of which were on Fox News.
OK, there's already a couple of things that are loose cannons here; the possibility of trying to drum up attention to sell the book and unsubstantiated predictions made on Fox News. If this guy really is an intelligence officer, there's no way he could make Fox News any smarter! He should know that!
One of the 'articles' I did find on Fox Fan Central (does not have a date stamp so I cannot confirm when this was posted) does have some good points. Even Fox. That doesn't imply that all of them are good, however!
But lest I digress. I think that we are gullible until we realize that we can easily be taken. With anything, we need to utilize critical thinking skills to determine what pieces of information seem plausible (or logical) and which ones don't.
Anyway. Have a good discerning day!
