The fabricated Hasan Nasrallah quotation in the New York Times

So I wrote yesterday about a fabricated quotation attributed to Hasan Nasrallah and published in the New York Times.  The quote also appeared without source in this Israeli newspaper.  This is how Zionists have fabricated quotations before: one person will start, and then they will all quote it and then it becomes a standard quotation.  Well, I am not at liberty to talk about my private communications with a source in the Times but I can report to you that the Times was indeed unable to find a source for the quotation in question.  I am told that the paper will print a correction in a few days.
