Stateless session is basically a wrapper around statefulsession and since per doc  statefulsession is not threadsafe is it  safe to assume 2 threads cannot insert and run fireallrules to compare against a union of objects inserted by multiple threads without some synchronication on event insertion and ESP fireallrulesrules ? ( would the answer still hold despite a drools-camel endpoint reading and storing exchanges from multiple threads ? )
stateful sessions are thread safe, they just aren't multi-threaded. Each 
of the working memory actions hold a lock, so only one thread at a time 
can enter.
