What a GIGANTIC slap in the face it is to be taken in by someone, shown hospitality as an honored guest, and then have them claim you kidnapped them!

When I read the book Three Cups Of Tea. I knew right off the bat that the most inspiring and dramatic stories in the book were lies. I watched 60 minutes and now I know him as a complete fraud. Yes, he helped some of the children in Pakistan and Afghanistan, but a huge chunk of money he gets goes towards his career and not even half of the money goes towards building the schools.
Mortenson is a fraud.

Coming from a Pakistani, I think that what he experienced it the village is quite accurate. In America, stuff like that doesn't happen, that's why you people say no. Expand your experiences, people!

Greg's whole story seems unbelievable... too unbelievable. He's done good things, but putting fake pictures and stories in his books? What an untrustworthy person.
I also just can't believe that some of those stories are true; some seem like absolute fiction! If you look at the interviews and the raw evidence, you might find that most people from Korphe and his traveling partners disagree with what Greg wrote in his book.

@AtlasObjectivist Not a *complete* fraud - one of the guys interviewed even said that Mortenson was "not Madoff" and that Mortenson did some good things - But the 60 Minutes asserts that the bookkeeping is very bad and that Mortenson embellished the story of his book - two different components to attack his credibility as an honest NGO head
Wouldn't it be nice if more people in Washington DC would follow by Greg Mortensen's example?
