Basil was NEVER a terrorist!

Cognitive dissonance: a psychological term describing the uncomfortable tension that may result from having conflicting thoughts or beliefs (cognitions) at the same time or engaging in behavior that conflicts with one's beliefs. More broadly, it also refers to attempts to reduce the discomfort of conflicting thoughts, beliefs and actions.

Ever seen those old cartoons where a character will shake their head violently from side to side repeatedly, the tongue often being exposed and the cheeks flapping?
