He isn’t blind, it is just that his biases refuse to allow him to the simple truth, which is present in photographic or even video form. Believing otherwise would basically shatter his faith. The alternative of pretend blindness is way better.
All he keeps doing is saying it. It's so pathetic. That's like me saying China has captured Hawaii and Russia captured New York state. Everything that claims otherwise is a conspiracy and a cover up to hide embarrassment. The only issue is this only works in that Indian mindset so touchy about anything that doesn't make them no.2 to USA lol.
