 Packets just don't ever have enough! I rather take a medium size bottle with me where needed. Wether vacation or work. They run out fast enough as is! :)

Yeah, it's certainly possible, but it's certainly more plausible that the guy just made up a story.

Apparently? Why haven't we seen it? Apparently there's also a video of me with the winning powerball ticket, but the lottery folks are being jerks and not paying me.

I didn't see the apology.  Where's that?

ETA:


Yeah, that apology doesn't look staged at all.

No, but its easier to believe that a homeless guy made a story up which got him tons of attention, a haircut, new clothes, 20 bucks, and every guy passing through the gas station to toss him change.

And that those claiming to have witnessed it made it up, and the articles which claim that there was a video which was taken down were all made up?

Claims and claims.  Who is doing this claiming? Who is claiming that others are claiming? It all comes down to like one source. 

And the idea that there is a video showing frum people in bad light that was posted on the internet for any amount of time, and is now unavailable anywhere, is completely noncredible (incredible).  Come on, the story is obviously linked on every anti-semitic website in the world judging by the comments.

http://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Report-US-UK-intelligence-hacked-into-Israeli-drones-under-operation-Anarchist-443228
(Reported just about everywhere, I just picked one).

I love the one Israeli quote in the article:
Quote
"We are not surprised, we know that the Americans are spying on the whole world, including their 'friends'. That is disappointing, because for decades we have not spied, collected intelligence or attempted to crack the encryption of the United States."
The last line reads to me something like this: We're soooo disappointed, because it's not like we spy on America  ;) ;)
Of course the quote is from someone who wouldn't be involved with this type of thing, so it's probably worthless either way.
