It would be easier not to think you're an asshole if you'd just stop sniping - yes, sniping - at little tidbits instead of tracking the larger question. First you attempt to derail the conversation into a black or white "you're with us or against us" furball, and then fail to accept any explanation given. I decided to ignore you to get it back on topic, and then you accuse my hypothetical of having "no weight".
My "somebody doesn't like newbies and is trying to cut out any form of alternate opinion" sense is tingling.OoooOOoo! And how would you do that without occupying every country in the area? |
Well, as I mentioned a few posts ago, the chance of one of Israel's neighbors attacking a nuclear power are pretty slim. Since I already said that, I guess I am keeping up.
You can call answering questions in one sentence sniping, but I prefer to call it brevity. How is it "sniping" to say that America isn't going to abandon Israel anytime soon or to point out that Israel could handily beat it's neighbors in a war? My sense of humor and sarcasm may be dull, but it ain't that damn dull. However, I'll try to be more verbose when posting in your threads in the future. As for the "no weight" comment, that's just par for the course around here and hardly qualifies as a personal attack.
As for the "with us or against us bit," if you look back at our earlier exchange, you should be able to see that I corrected a misapprehension of my own concerning your posts. I guess I'll quote it myself:

Edit: I can see that you never mentioned the invasion of Iraq in your statement. I occasionally have to remind myself of what happens when one assumes.

Note: that means that I made an "ass outta you and me," although the ass would be me alone in this case. It is worth pointing out that in our exchange that I did misinterpret you so perhaps it wasn't so "with us or against us" as you think. We can all be wrong occasionally, right?
I had no idea that you are a newbie nor do I give a shit how long you've been here. The newbie comment came from someone else.
Let's just stop the fussin' and the fightin'. The whole "asshole" remark was supposed to disarm you with rapier like wit, but apparently it didn't work. What's new?
