Back in 2011 Iman al Obeidi burst into a hotel filled with foreign journalists in Libya after having been claimed to be imprisoned, raped, and beaten by Gaddafi's army. She was considered a voice of freedom in the Arab spring.
I remember that story from 2011, went back to see what came of it. Turns out that same woman was granted asylum in the United States and went to prison in 2015 after multiple blatant violations of US law including assault and being arrested FOUR times in a span of a few years:

They allege the woman had mental health issues and trauma related to what she claims to have experienced in Libya in 2011 as well as not being able to adapt to US society which is what caused these violent outbursts. But who is to say she wasn't always this way, and the story back from 2011 wasn't fabricated or distorted by her somehow? What if we were led into war on the back of lies, again? A few years back I wouldnt have questioned it, now I cant trust anything anymore.
