Subject: RE: BS: Is Mr Bush going into Iran?from SkarpiIc
You constantly point the finger at others for being biased, robomatic, but you are one of the most biased people there is. So your posts on this subject are given the merit they deserve by those of us who value objectivity, which is to say, none at all.

And I really don't see any point in making a distinction between someone who kills innocent people and him or her self in the process, and someone who kills innocent people while staying safe him or herself, except to try to make excuses for the killing of innocents. Which is what you do when you defend the actions of the Israeli government.

And you're really not qualified to psychoanalyze those who criticize Israel, so your assessments of the motives and underlying attitudes of those with whom you debate are just as worthless as your "facts".

I saw a post from you a while back, in which you said in a different context that you had rooted for the "Empire" in the Star Wars movies, but the reason you gave then was different from the one you gave on this thread. Back then, you said you liked that the structure that was offered by the Empire, and that was why you rooted for them. If I were to engage in your kind of pop psychology, I might suggest that you are someone who fantasizes about power and you root for those through whom you can vicariously experience a feeling of power and invincibility. I might further suggest that you do this because of some sense of inadequacy on your part. And I might suggest that you root for Israel because you know, as well as we do, that Israel is the country that holds all the power in the Middle East, and you want to be on the "winning side".

But I'm not really any more qualified to make those kinds of assessments of others than you are, so I won't engage in that sort of charlatanism.
