I guess Ulrike Putz (when she wakes up after a wild night in Beirut's hot spot "Wallima") and her soul mate Andrew Sullivan, could turn a new leaf now ...James Downie in FP, here
"... The most pernicious fake Twitter user, though, has been Persian_Guy, who's not only provided fake news ( "Mussavi overheard: 'We don't need a black man's help, that's humiliating, at least not arab.'") and calls for violence (""non-Iranian Arabs waving Hamas/Hezbollah flags around the protests. Kill Arabs now, they are scums!"), but has even brought Twitter into the fake narrative.
