Generally though, that is bad practice. For anything controversial, use references - as far as they're available. It's amazing what a determined search can turn up. Or not turn up!

If a real bomb had exploded, there would have been more people around the explosion spot with notable injuries, injuries that would have caused them pain, bleeding etc, behavior of some bystanders, damage to clothing and other things do not add up and the most 'famous' of the victims with his legs blown away would have most certainly died given time, treatment and transport to the tent that he received -> (1) https://www.sott.net/image/s7/141276/full/leg1.jpg (2) https://www.sott.net/image/s7/141275/full/bauman.jpg -> this is pretty thorough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zpir3GQDj8 Sunvalley (talk) 18:41, 14 October 2017 (IST)
