Well thanks for setting me straight Professor Acorn, where would I be without your infinate wisdom. I mean after all, if someone doesn't agree with you the best way to get the to agree is to belittle them right? I'm not sure why I bothered...

I've reread the thread and I haven't found anything to suggest otherwise. Silence can be seen as tacit approval. Infanteer is a father, ask him what happens if you don't tell a child no when they do something wrong. The gist of your arguments seem to ask us to see it through the Pals eyes...

It matters because we (in the west) are the ones capable of making a change. Personally I think the Pals need our help in the same way the Germans and Japanese needed our help. There are without a doubt many more parents there who want their children to grow up, we should be supporting them, not...

You're sure? How? That sure doesn't square with what Acorn said earlier.

First of all that the question wasn't what the parents consider it, the question was what do you consider it? ANd it isn't a rhetorical question. Second of all how do you know what the parents consider it, ever heard from one? Ever discuss it with one? I haven't. Either way I don't think it...

Where did "murdering your children" come into play?   The debate was about Palestinians dressing their children up like Martyrs. What else would you call inciting a child to kill himself?

Daniel, Thanks for the post, could you possibly offer us some insight as to how Quebecers might feel if Canada reelected the Liberal party? We get very little coverage from Quebec but what I have been hearing from the Liberals here is that a vote for the COnservatives is a vote for separation.

1. I have to assume that those of you going to such great lengths to justify parents murdering their children have no children of your own. Infanteer? Britney? Che? Anyone of you have the experience to speak on being a parent? If your answer is to say that "it's just their way" then you can keep...

You may not have said to "shrug your shoulders" but that seems to be the gist of your argument. Are you saying that because their culture glorifies  deliberately killing your own children we are supposed to accept it? I guess we should just accept child prostitution in Thailand, or the rape of...

I have to disagree with you Infanteer. I see your point that the kids (or their parents) are just emulating their "defence" forces but I think that drawing any equivalence between the the CF and Hamas is repugnant. While the people of Palestine may believe that Hamas is defending them against...

He should realize that he has a better chance of getting what he wants if he backs Harper.

I recently attended a presentation from the head of CTS. According to him the "new" ruck will not be fielded before 2010. Regardless when it is fielded I suggest buying your own. It is not what I or anyone else with any knowledge of current ruck design would call cutting edge. As usual the free...

Words fail me.

Well the pen is mightier than the sword after all.

Not "there" yet but this stuff is Canadian designed: http://www.militarymorons.com/gear/clothes.3.html Made with fabric that is windproof, breathable, waterproof, insulating, wicking...seems pretty much perfect to me.

Blaming other people for your inability to make a point is a cop out. If your point can't stand on it's own merits without resorting to insults, it may be time to reconsider your position. 

For the love of Pete you is slow. Make your point all you like, that is your perogative. IS it too much to ask though for you to keep the sanctimonious holier-than-thou preaching to yourself? Some people don't agree with your point of view and I don't appreciate you demonizing them. Is that...

And you still haven't gotten the point. I didn't answer the question because you aren't qualified to judge my actions. It is arrogant on your part to think that you are and even more arrogant to offer a list of things you've done as though they are some sort of yardstick by which we should all...

What is funny is your implication that if people don't choose to act in the way you believe is right then they wrong and bad. Pretty arrogant, Zipper but not unexpected. You've made a lot of insulting assumptions and insinuations in your posts without the burden of having to back any of it up...

So are you going to combine them? :D
