Why Libya and not Palestine?

[Snow Crash]

I haven't won anything because you're not playing.

All I attempted to do is have a discussion, and it appears you aren't interested.

So which is it?

Er no, you were attempting to portray something I said as something quite different. Then when it was pointed out to you that your assertion was incorrect, and that furthermore, your argument was desperate at best, you attempted that old classic of repeating a statement until it becomes accepted.

That's not haivng a discussion. That's talking shit and then tripping yourself up. You're welcome of course to go back and actually read the convo Egg and I were having. But I doubt you will. It might be too... inconvenient.

Uh oh....facts that weaken preconceived notions.

Batten down the hatches.

Cha ching!!!!!!

How's that, Charlie?

Maybe there is a homeopathic remedy.

Possibly. Would you mind looking into it for me Berk?

I did read it, and you say I'm trying to protray what you said as something quite different, but I'm not.

I'm not arguing.

No one in the world provides more aid to the Palestinians than the USA

If that's what you were trying to say...we agree!

If what you were trying to say is that no one provides more weapons to Israel than the USA...we agree again!

If what you were trying to say is that there is hypocrisy in that...we agree again!

Yippee!

But I still don't understand this

I am not saying the US has to drop everything to help the Palestinians.

Who exactly helps them more?

Iran? Nope

Saudi's? Nope

Just the Great Satan....aka USA

Again...I don't support us giving aid to Israel for weapons....or weapons aid to anyone ....except maybe South Korea.

I think all of the USA's military should be withdrawn from other countries...except perhaps South Korea.

So...is there anything you would like to discuss?

Let's try the OP, because if we stick on this, we're gonna be here all night.

Why, in your opinion, do those alleged pacifists who praise the war in Libya as a 'humanitarian mission' choose not to hold Israel terrorizing the Palestinians up as an example of a place the west could do some good by liberating an oppressed people?

Libya is about oil...nothing else. Well...maybe Mummar is not well liked in DC. Fresh chance for a new puppet

I don't support that...but Mummar isn't my favorite guy...but I don't really like paying for it either.

It isn't comparable to the Palestinians.

In Libya at least there is an end game.

Not so much for Israel and the Palestinians.

I've not paid too much attention to any of the esoteric theories. What in particular do you think has elements of truth to it?

I can't point to any one source, I'm afraid, cos there's too much rubbish out there... It's just things I've heard from here and there. Sorry to be so vague.
