Time for a hoax on APJ Abdul Kalam

There is a hoax running in twitter and whatsapp which says US flag is half down in white house in condolence of demise of APJ Abdul Kalam.

Hoax 1:
First time in world history U.S Whitehouse flag was half down on behalf of Dr A P J Abdul Kalam Sir. Proud to be an Indian.
The hoax creator does not allow any one to be a proud Indian.

However Obama had given condolence statement which is as below.
On behalf of the American people, I wish to extend my deepest condolences to the people of India on the passing of former Indian President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam.  A scientist and statesman, Dr. Kalam rose from humble beginnings to become one of India’s most accomplished leaders, earning esteem at home and abroad.  An advocate for stronger U.S.-India relations, Dr. Kalam worked to deepen our space cooperation, forging links with NASA during a 1962 visit to the United States.  His tenure as India’s 11th president witnessed unprecedented growth in U.S.-India ties.   Suitably named “the People’s President,” Dr. Kalam’s humility and dedication to public service served as an inspiration to millions of Indians and admirers around the world.
