(I hope you realise I'm talking down to you here) Afterwards, in the short term, several Western hostages were killed. Another inductive fallacy. And I'm sure that was a great comfort to them as they died. In the longer term, Libyan support for (among other groups) the IRA continued unabated. The record says otherwise. The bulk of Libyan logistical support for the provos was shipped before events of El-Dorado canyon. Which record are you looking at there? AFAIK the PIRA never published records! Please feel free to provide a cite here if this is anything more than idiotic posturing... Please continue to emit some more straw men and non sequiturs. Straw men and non sequiturs I will leave up to you. You do them so well. ROTFL Another posturing idiot who doesn't know what a tu quoque is. You are so right.

"The two main sources of weaponry for the IRA have been the USA and Libya" http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontl...e/weapons.html and it has the shipments continuing until the 'early 90s' which was what I thought.

Aww bless, ad hominem. You mean like the German or Japanese 'civilians' were ? Please tell the audience how your vast intellect would have dealt with the very real threat of fascism without causing the death of 'civilians'. I'm all ears. We were actually talking about Libya, at least I was. You unequivocally asserted the following " Killing civilians is not just against all basic rules of civilised behaviour, it is bad for business. " The discussion context is clearly about 'civilians'. Its not the fault of the audience that you are incapable of supporting what you posted previously. You see, the survivors tend to be annoyed. Like those at Dresden or Tokyo ? Attempt to change the subject noted. We were actually talking about Libya. 1986. Not WW2. I'm not changing the subject. You were the one to assert " Killing civilians is not just against all basic rules of civilised behaviour, it is bad for business. " I've asked you to detail alternatives, what are they. Remember a few years ago, when a few thousand civilians were killed in New York? I assure you, I felt just the same way about them. Of course you did, hollow words easily spoken. I get the feeling you would not know sincerity if your care worker showed you it in a book. This coming from the intellectual giant who emoted " Killing civilians is not just against all basic rules of civilised behaviour, it is bad for business. " If you were truly 'sincere' you'd enlighten the audience with your alternatives. "Yes, Abdul, you see if those evil Americans had not engaged in acts of war against us, these civilians would still be alive" Do you *really* think two wrongs make a right? Yet more canned cliche. Evasion of direct question noted. You cannot tell the audience what your 'civilian' sparing alternative was w.r.t confronting Japanese & German fascism, North Korean/Iraqi invasions of their neighbours & state sanctioned terrorist attacks by Libya on 120 odd German 'civilians'. How could one possibly 'evade' such trite fallacious nonsense. Are you suggesting that for example the UN shouldn't have intervened to turn back the North Korean invasion in 1950 because 'two wrongs dont make a right' How about the invasion of Kuwait in 1990 ? Attempt to change the subject noted. That's not changing the subject. You unequivocally asked above. "Do you *really* think two wrongs make a right?" When referring to civilian casualties. I cannot help it if your ego wont permit you to accept the inherent contradiction in such cliched nonsense. How would *you* have dealt with a clear act of war on the part of the Libyans ? Probably not by bombing the Swiss embassy. Then again, I am not American. Now that *is* an evasion. You cannot tell the audience what *your* response would have to been to clear act of state terrorism by Libya. You are unable to detail anything resembling a alternative to an act of war on Libya's part and the US right under article 51 to respond. [evasive nonsense binned unread] -- Felicitations, malefactors! I am endeavoring to misappropriate the formulary for the preparation of affordable comestibles. Who will join me?! |
