I really can't understand your posting here. Your debating style (if I can call it that) is agressive at best and gives no indication that there is any other valid opinion than the way of champson.

I read you posts and you seem determined to invoke every major political scandal or war, whether relevant or not to your point. Then, when that doesn't work, you launch personal attacks on the moderator.

These are not the actions of someone persuasive. If I were to add single-paragraph accounts of attrocities in the 20th century; add some vitriol; a sprinkling of hard-done-by; and a dash of nobody-takes-any-notice-of-me, then I may end up with the contents of your postings.

If you want to play political hardball then there are plenty of people interested in such discussions, I'm just not sure that here is the place for it.

That said, the majority of the people on the forum are well-educated and have travelled, and may not respond well to being told in such a manner the way in which you think the world works.
