[Jonathan Davis 1] This forum is overrun with apologists for our street dancing ululating Palestinian terror supporters and their ilk.
[Hermit 5] Supporting terrorists by dancing and ululating?
[Jonathan Davis 8] Err...no. Read it again. There are people who are apologists for terrorist supporters and their ilk, some of whom dance in the streets and ululate [to celebrate terrorist attacks].
[Hermit 5] Who exactly does dancing harm? What about ululating (as long as I don't have to listen to it)? Are you arguing that this constitutes a crime against anything but good taste? Is this how you justify the call to "Kill them all! God will know his own."
[Jonathan Davis 8] I submit this as a strong candidate for the Straw Man of the year award.
[Hermit 9] Your submission is rejected with the contempt it deserves. Your argument above is not against terrorists - it is against people who are apologists for those speaking in favor of terrorism (Palestinian terror supporters and their ilk). Unless you wish to argue that freedom of speech should be limited, this argument fails. So far you have provided nothing in support of such an argument. Your phrasing is such that you condemn a nation on the grounds that they are supporters of terrorists, and then imply that apologists for them are also supporters of terrorists. Your equations don't balance. Go buy some logic or take a writing course to learn to write what you mean. I also note that you cannot get into a discussion without immediate recourse to ad hominem. Perhaps you should retract your earlier comments on its use or I will consider you as great a hypocrite as those you purport to defend.

[Mailman0] "You see, when you are crushing a man's windpipe with your knee, you may be sure he will attempt to bite you"
[Milkman Dan1] "Yes I've noticed that."
[joedees 3] You see, when a man repeatedly kicks you in the gonads, you will hold him down any way you can manage to get him to stop.
[Blunderov 4] Yes I've noticed that.
[Hermit 5] So Joe, are you now suggesting that we stop targeting Iraq?
[Jonathan Davis 8] Oh look, a leap of logic that has carried the leaper into the abyss of absurdity. : )
[Hermit 9] I piss on your little smileys - they evidently don't do anything to improve your thinking.
[Hermit 9] Not a leap, but a simple analog step. The fact you cannot follow it should concern you. The US has been attacking Iraq near continuously for a decade. Kharma and history both suggest that this will not last forever without somebody responding in a way that we will not enjoy.
