M,

I see a debate on the openness or closedness of minds. In a debate, you rely on information to supply some support for your side of the discussion. I took was was readily at hand. Is there some particular detail that you object to, or just my using you as a case study?

Your argument of thread contamination is rather vague to me, because it would seem "par for the course" for threads in IW to be taken in many directions. On this comment, the words Pot Kettle and Black spring to mind.

I must be about the 6th or 7th member that you have made that TOS threat to - is that something that you resort to when you want to guillotine debate on the topic? Tell you what - to be on the safe side, I will ask some of the moderators to go through this thread and see if I'm crossing any lines. Will let them give me some personal feedback via email such that I can use that information for personal development [img]smile.gif[/img] . There, does that make you feel more comfortable.

Damn - out of time - nice rebuttal JD [img]smile.gif[/img] - I will be back to explore your answer further when I get home from work.

Mmmm... as someone who often ruffles feathers around here, I gotta know: what exactly does TOS stand for?

(Mrs. Iselin touches her son's head, then sits down before him and takes his hands in hers. The giant queen of diamonds is visible in the background between them.)
Mrs. Iselin: I know you will never entirely comprehend this, Raymond. But you must believe I did not know it would be you. I served them. I fought for them. I'm on the point of winning for them the greatest foothold they will ever have in this country. And they paid me back by taking your soul away from you. I told them to build me an assassin. I wanted a killer from a world filled with killers and they chose you. Because they thought it would bind me closer to them.
(Mrs. Iselin pulls Raymond closer to her. She takes his face in her hands.)
Mrs. Iselin: But now we have come almost to the end. One last step. And then, when I take power, they will be pulled down and ground into dirt for what they did to you. And what they did in so contemptuously underestimating me.
(Mrs. Iselin kisses her son: on the forehead, the cheek, and -- most intensely -- on the lips.)

The steps taken by Israel in 1967 were provoked, justifiable and reasonable in my mind, they had already been attacked twice by the combined might of the Arab League, how many times must they allow the Arabs to try and push them into the sea, without becomming a proactive nation instead of a reactive one? Please, do read the report [img]smile.gif[/img] I worked hard on it [img]smile.gif[/img]
I dont think you covered up your passive aggressiveness good enough [img]smile.gif[/img] Add some more fake smily faces just to be sure [img]smile.gif[/img]
