thundercat, we have reached the point in the debate where I can no longer listen you. Look at this:

Oh really? What caused the accident?

This in reply to my reply to:

The fact is the ONLY reason they ended up in the water

We were talking about how they…

teleprompter:Agreed.

I do not envy your agreement. Frankly, I am glad you are on the other side of the fence. There are a scant few here who welcome your agreement. You tend to undermine those whose side you are on. Just wait and see who rushes to your defense on…

Triumvere: I'm sorry, if you don't care about terrain or geopolitics then you aren't serious about making an assesment of the realities on the ground, all you care about is making a political point.

Well the terrain would have a lot to do with the situation on the ground. The…

teleprompter: Do you actually believe their pride would prevent them from using planes if they could?

It does not matter. They are not the yardstick we should measure ourselves by.

They seem pretty handy with other infidel inventions - like the AK-47 and RPG's.

They might be more than happy…

WilliB: This is mob rule at work. Look forward to more such media-and-hysteria inspired rulings once the new lay judge system kicks in. The legal system in this country is getting scary.

I think its only the second time, but I completely agree. It was the outrage of the mob…

Triumvere: conflicts are unique and should be assessed as such.

Spoken like a true war lover. Your insistence that we reinvent the wheel describing every conflict afresh only assures that we never get a general understanding of it until it is long over. What a great way to nip criticism…

Den Den: their actions are far more honorable that the cowardly and seemingly indiscriminate bombing from an airplane.

I will agree that dropping bombs from a plane when civilians will likely die and you have a near zero chance of being shot down is the anti-thesis of courage.

I am…

Yes, I think your opinion is abundantly clear. But its too bad you mostly just offered your opinion in such an overbearing manner and hardly backed anything up. Just posting "irrelevant" after a quote? You must be really frustrated. I am sorry…

RichardtheFirst and parforthecourse, it not like I am alone is it? The first trial was more on par with what I had in mind. So why all this extremism with bringing up Hitler and accusing me of compassion for criminal scum? Your rantings are not helping you. In fact, they…

Helter_Skelter: No it isn't. The Arabic term "fedayeen", meaning to sacrifice oneself, has been around for centuries.

How does "sacrificing oneself" equate to terrorism??? I saw a movie where a grenade got lobbed into a foxhole and one guy laid on it and sacrificed himself to save his buddies. You…
