  there was no truth to this story, which originated solely with  world news daily report, a fake news site whose disclaimer notes that wndr’s content is “satirical” and “fictional”:
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  wndr assumes however all responsibility for the satirical nature of its articles and for the fictional nature of their content. all characters appearing in the articles in this website – even those based on real people –  are entirely fictional and any resemblance between them and any persons, living, dead, or undead is purely a miracle.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  the photograph of the supposed “iraqi terrorist” is a manipulated version of an image taken from a 2016 article about saudi arabia’s execution of 47 prisoners, including persons who were “arrested when they were children and others suffering from mental illness.”
