The simple sacrifice was not a winning sacrifice.
The problem was that kasparov did not prepare for it because fxe6 instead of Qe7
is probably winning.

I do not believe that IBM cheated kasparov by moves of humans but I do not think
that kasparov is the bad guy of this story.

I feel that IBM cheat the public by not playing with deeper blue.

I read in the newspaper in the first match of deep blue against kasparov that
they refused to draw in the 5th game because they saw it as a scientific
experiment.

Now they stopped this experiment.

They made a wrong impression that they wanted to play when the truth was that
they wanted only to win and stop to play.
