As for the truth, clearly you would not recognize it if it fell on you. The proof is in your next statement:

The truth about a lie is that it requires conscious deception, proving that your statement is either redundant or evidence of a most pathetic ignorance of what constitutes a lie, and by inference, what embodies truth.
Dilligras, in addition to throwing around your silly insults, you seem to be downright proud of being misinformed. The outright deception and active cover up engaged in by the DOD is well documented.
Army Withheld Details About Tillman's Death
Quote:
The first Army investigator who looked into the death of former NFL player Pat Tillman in Afghanistan last year found within days that he was killed by his fellow Rangers in an act of "gross negligence," but Army officials decided not to inform Tillman's family or the public until weeks after a nationally televised memorial service.

Soldiers on the scene said they were immediately sure Tillman was killed by a barrage of American bullets as he took shelter behind a large boulder during a twilight firefight along a narrow canyon road near the Pakistani border, according to nearly 2,000 pages of interview transcripts and investigative reports obtained by The Washington Post.

The documents also show that officers made erroneous initial reports that Tillman was killed by enemy fire, destroyed critical evidence and initially concealed the truth from Tillman's brother, also an Army Ranger, who was near the attack on April 22, 2004, but did not witness it.
It was an active cover-up from the beginning. And you claim that I wouldn't recognize truth.
