Let's map this one out:
Iranian physicist talks to IAEA ---> IAEA concludes Iran is working on weapons technology --> Iranian physicist is murdered.
Let's draw up a list of suspects:
1. Iran
Truth is beauty and beauty is truth...
...but sometimes truth also makes me laugh.
Thanks!
You both relish in the death of an Iranian physicist. Why?edit on 1/19/2012 by SayonaraJupiter because: special awards
The simple reasoning of the "list of suspects" against the frantic white-washing of Ahmadedjad so that the USA can be tarred is no more "relishing
a death" from my point of view than it is
exploiting it for propaganda from your point of view.
So, the
bons mots went succinctly, effectively and comically to the core.
As you wrote:
Political intrigues and espionage are a higher level game than most people here can come to grips with.
That works both ways. But if one is easily polarized by issues (and almost everyone wants everyone else to be) one will "cherry pick" the facts
which one embraces, and ignore falsehoods with a selective bias-- pouncing on some while ignoring others as suits the agenda, but not the truth.
I see so much misinformation on these threads that it is clear that the vast majority of the posts are the work of fools ("gut feel" portrayed in
hopes it will be taken as "insight")... or liars (persons with a political agenda whose collateral damage is justified by them-- but not by their
victims-- by the ends they desire)... no matter which polar position one is taking. The main difference between the fools and the liars is that the
fools are the prey, and the liars are the predators.
These threads are not intended to educate-- they do not address historical, economic or cultural issues in the light of reason-- but only in polarized
impassioned expressions of hate...
... and what region of the planet does that sound like?
So the post to which I responded represented a "full stop," a brief pause, in the rhetoric which had ensued-- and made me laugh.
If reading "the US always lies" and then reading from the same person, "Leon Panetta 'admits' Iran is not making nuclear weapons," I cannot help
at smile at the inconsistent naivete of accepting a statement from the US Secretary of Defense at face value.
Surely you have noticed?
...or maybe not-- but I have.
