Zama: The Battle That Never Was?

[Robert]

Well, as the link to policework has already been laid, let's see if there is MOTIVE in the alleged fabrication of the Battle of Zama. Also, there may be a gray area. That there was a clash of some sort at Zama, but it was blown up to something much bigger and decisive. So it is not an entire fabrication, but a half-lie or half-truth. These are more difficult to counter then the clearcut variaty. So, in order to understand the WHAT, we must question the WHY.
