They did have equal ability.
I'm finding you're not very analytical.
Just so you know. It's an extremely derogative term, and it is not funny.
You have a point, even though it was meant as slang for khaim. I think you should appeal to the moderators to get it eliminated. Any maybe even get me a warning for using it. I'm sure you would feel much better about it if you could do that. And I'm even onside with doing that now. I've had my fun with it.
Also, I'm sure the majority of the people on this board would be in favour of a lot more censorship. And after all, making fun of somebody's milk cow is not nice is it!
No, they didn't. Not in 2003. Want to see the difference, invade Iran.
I also noted other things.
Invade Iran in 2003? Great response.
Do you just see things you want to see?
Within the rules, you are free to use all the derogatory terms you wish. You may even fling out the N-word, since this seems to be the kind of speech you favor. However, when you post on a public message board, others are free to respond whether you wish them to or not. You are responsible for what you post, and you will be judged by it. If you enjoy labeling yourself as antisemitic, racist or bigoted, by all means do so. Expect others to respond accordingly. I know I will.
Besides the OP's idiotic rhetoric when trying to explain this article and his personal opinion, i do agree with Putin and i dont believe that the government used chemical weapons, or both sides are using chemical weapons for several reasons:
U.N. has testimony that Syrian rebels used sarin gas: investigator | Reuters
There has been a lot of testimony that the syrian rebels used the chemical weapons not the governemnt
Turkish police seizes 2 kg of sarin gas from Al-Nusra militants
Rebels have been arrested in Turkey with sarin gas.
UN accuses Syrian rebels of carrying out sarin gas attacks which had been blamed on Assad's troops | Mail Online
Carla Del Ponte said UN Commission investigating war crimes in Syria has 'strong, concrete suspicions' that rebels used chemical weapons
The lion's share of Syria's chemical weapons stockpile came from Iraq, when Saddam was in power.
Good thing Saddam isn't in power, because I'm sure he would be more than happy to come to Assad's aid in defeating the webels.
What makes this applicable to the current times for me is that it's the 'gas attack' scenario being played out again by the US propagandists. Americans should be proactive and do everything in their capability to not let that happen. And as you will see on the other thread, Ron Paul is being and is making the right suggestions.
I think you need to learn a little bit about chem/bio weapons. A good resource would be your own CIA section leader Pelletiere who debunked the lies about Iraq doing the gassing at Halabja.
But I fear that's getting way too complicated for this cluster........
The Halabja poison gas attack (Kurdish: کیمیابارانی ھەڵەبجە Kîmyabarana Helebce), also known as Halabja massacre or Bloody Friday,[1] was a genocidal massacre against the Kurdish people that took place on March 16, 1988, during the closing days of the Iran–Iraq War, when chemical weapons were used by the Iraqi government forces in the Kurdish town of Halabja in Southern Kurdistan.
The attack killed between 3,200 and 5,000 people, and injured around 7,000 to 10,000 more, most of them civilians;[1][2] thousands more died of complications, diseases, and birth defects in the years after the attack.[3] The incident, which has been officially defined as an act of genocide against the Kurdish people in Iraq,[4] was and still remains the largest chemical weapons attack directed against a civilian-populated area in history.[5]
The Halabja attack has been recognized as a separate event from the Anfal Genocide that was also conducted against the Kurdish people by the Iraqi regime under Saddam Hussein.[6] The Iraqi High Criminal Court recognized the Halabja massacre as an act of genocide on March 1, 2010, a decision welcomed by the Kurdistan Regional Government.[7] The attack was also condemned as a crime against humanity by the Parliament of Canada.[8]
Good, now we can continue. The fact is, Iraq didn't have the right type of gas that was used at Halabja according to Pelletiere. And so we have to contemplate that Pelletiere could have been lying if he said that. Was he lying? If he was lying then it was to cover up the fact that the gas used had to have been supplied to Saddam by the US.
And there's my point with Pelletiere. Now you can choose your side on that one.

Plain and simple, there is no proof of the gas attacks by Assad's side. There isn't even proof of gas attacks by the terrorist side. Del Ponte has gone dark on the issue and that tells us all we need to know. The UN leans toward the West in nearly all cases and would not hold back evidence that could seal the case against Assad.
I'm interested in your further comments on Pelletiere especially.
You're suggesting that the US was responsible for the gas attack at Halabja?
You're using that to suggest that the US is responsible for the use of gas in Syria?

How about if we both agree to not waste each others time anymore?

Peter Dale Scott continues his analysis of the U.S. system of domination. In a conference held in Moscow, this former Canadian diplomat summed up the findings of his investigation into the funding of the system with money deriving from drug trafficking and hydrocarbon deals. Although widely known, such facts are nevertheless difficult to accept.

Or it could cause such handwringing that some people just have to turn to their ice cream for a little peace of mind.
For a guy with 175 posts, you sure seem familiar (though wrong) with this website. It's almost like you're making an (unjustified) personal remark toward the member you quoted, as if you know them.
Donsutherland does not waste anyones time. He presents his position, provides evidence and does so without troll/bait/flame of any sort. While I do not agree with him regarding this event, I have the utmost respect for his analysis, citations and respect of honest debate.
Case in point:
Why use such garbage sources. Do you realize that, if your opponent was pathetic enough to respond in kind, that they could just grab biased BS from some wackjob website that counters your BS. Hell, I bet we could find some fringe-job willing to claim Putin himself employed the gas.
Let's look at a frontpage article from the pathetic website above:
Come on, dude. Spare us the fringe garbage conspiracy theory spam. No one believes it. It only makes the citation provider look ridiculous.
The Daily Fail (Online)?
That's a tabloid.
Talk about wasting people's time. If I wanted to scrape the scum off the bottom of the internet barrel, I could do it myself.

Oh god! Here comes the source Nazi!
Rejecting lunatic fringe websites and tabloids is not exactly nazism.
How could i be so stupid!
1. Born that way.
2. Dropped on head.
3. Drugs.
4. Debilitating disease.
The possibilities are almost endless.
What's your point?
That anything that doest come from the MSM in your opinion is always a farce. News flash the MSM doesnt always report everything going on in the world, they have a sensationalist driven view they have to uphold.
