I mean fuck our presidents didnt even stop there he went to universities around the country talking to respected military historians on other things to reconsider when an upcoming change in strategy was adopted, primarily when Gates was appointed.

I mean WTF is wrong with you... I dont need to show anyone articles stating the obvious. Im tired of your bitching... " Americans want a change, the joint of staff also, Reps, look at the polls" quit crying already for gods sake

And this disproves anything I've discussed and brought up thus far, how again?

Kindly demonstrate how any of the groups I've previously mentioned are somehow in agreeance with Bush's Iraq policies. Be sure to cite sources with verifiable evidence in the same manner as I have done to support your assertions.

As I have mentioned here:

I will kindly paste my same answer for you:

Because you're relatively new here, I'll let your continual ad hominems slide for now. But I will say that if you continue attacking with asinine ad hominem fallacies while failing to make any arguments to debate, rest assured a mod will more than likely be notified. IOW, if you're interested in a flame war, kindly take your shit elsewhere. This is a political debate forum. Either engage with intellectual honesty in debate or kindly go about your way. Added in Edit: You might want to review our Mod's 7 simple rules thread: http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...7&forumid=66&s= Take notice of rule #2, if you will.

Now, back on topic, could you please answer the following for me?:

quote:

Given the fact that hardly any predictions made by this Administration and its supporters have come to fruition about this war in Iraq, why the fuck do you think you have an ounce of credibility to make any predictions about the situation in the future? Given your support to the group that's been wrong on almost all accounts with this war, what on earth should compel anyone to start believing your predictions now? And lastly, again I wonder, do you think it's okay for Bush to call for a timetable of withdrawal against Clinton back in 1999?

Stop dodging, show some intellectual honesty for once in your life here and answer that question, please.

So an independent analysis of the situation and recommendations by that bipartisan analysis were therefore rendered moot because, uhh, they were never meant to do exactly what they were supposed to do?

Are you really trying to make a coherent argument here?

Yes, I'm well aware of what the President did. He was told by his commanders on the ground that an increase or surge would not work. He was told by the Iraq Study Group that a surge would not be the answer, and that a phased withdrawal combined with increased diplomacy was the better answer. He was told by his Joint Chiefs of Staff that a surge was not the way to go.

So he fired those commanders on the ground (funny, I thought he always listened to his commanders on the ground?), and went headhunting for folks who'd agree with Fred Kagan's AEI neocon surge idea that was passed down to him.

I'm fully aware of this timeline. What is your point?

quote:

Well I'm sorry you seem to be having difficulty supporting your point. Perhaps you never really have a worthwhile point to support in the first place? Failure to back up your argument with anything substantive tends to leave one believing your point was a bit vacuous in the first place.

It's a basic concept in debate 101 - support your argument. Yet you've done horribly with that on every post you've had at present. You have only yourself to blame for your ineptitude and lack of preparation.

Who the fuck is predicting?
lol I'll I have said is that I support my commander in chief for victory in Iraq

As I have said I dont need to point out or provide articles for obious shit like you do. Ofcourse everyone knows that Reps have criticized bush, I dont need to go out and point obvious shit like you do. Ofcourse Americans are not happy of the war, I dont need to go out and point that shit out with polls. Its fucking common sense!

Dont think Im dodging your questions. Is that no offense I fucking feel stupid reading the shit you write and the articles you show off. Show that to someone that has arrived to this country for first time so he can keep up with obvious feelings about our current administration.

This is the problem here shit that you dont seemed to understand and real analysis. America now cannot only act towards the world on for its own benefit. Its must not only act on whats good for America but also for the people of the X nation they are dealing with...

For example, in Latin America and in the ME America has been basically acting upon its own interest while the leaders of the X nation they are dealing with are giving 3 shits about their people. That is where the Anti American sentiment comes... because the people there are not stupid and ask themselves... wtf should we have some respect for America when America is negotiating with our leader for their own benefit and dont give 3 shits about us.

So you see that is why the US now if putting their moral first and their own interest for second. a perfect example is when they dealt with N. Korea we werent going to make the mistake like clinton did to provide them with money, so they can halt their nuke prog, and where did the money go? did it go to the people? no but to their military

That is one of the things this Admin has learned. That same shit is happening with Iran. If Iran wants to engage in constructive negotiations for the better of Iraq. Come on you must be stupid if you think that Iran wont start conversations about their nuke prog when we send a diplomat to sit down with them.

That is why the US has disregarded in bringing Iran to the table I mean If you want the US to go suck dick to them to stop sending terrorist to harm our troops and with the condition not to pressure them with their nuke prog... hey lets chose your party

My point: The US will only negotiate with those leaders that demonstrate support for the war on terrorism and to those that will bring atleast some good to their people

I'm really having a difficult time following what you're saying. You're swaying a bit off topic with other examples that we could clearly create other threads for such as N. Korea, Iran, etc.

But if you have no interest in supporting your points that you made directly to me with evidence, and if you refuse to answer my direct questions to you, then why are you here in the debate forum to begin with?

As I've mentioned previously, if you have no desire to debate with intellectual honesty, there are plenty of other threads to entertain. This is not one of them, sir.

I will attempt to address a couple of points, however:

quote:

So the points I made with evidence to support them which directly counter your unsupported assertions are merely me "showing off" rather than actually addressing you?

Hmm, strange.

quote:

Did it ever occur to you that our phased withdrawal, our increase in diplomatic efforts with Iraq's neighbors, our attention moving towards training Iraqi troops and directing our tactics towards al Qaeda operations in Iraq (what the Dems. and the Iraq Study Group proposed) might actually be addressing the "X nation" you described?

quote:

That is why the US has disregarded in bringing Iran to the table I mean If you want the US to go suck dick to them to stop sending terrorist to harm our troops and with the condition not to pressure them with their nuke prog... hey lets chose your party

You realize the primary group harming our troops by a very large margin do not come from Iran, right? Iran sending in terrorists doesn't hold a candle to the Sunni insurgency along with al Qaeda operations. Surely you're aware of that?

And though this is a bit off subject:

quote:

So you see that is why the US now if putting their moral first and their own interest for second. a perfect example is when they dealt with N. Korea we werent going to make the mistake like clinton did to provide them with money, so they can halt their nuke prog, and where did the money go? did it go to the people? no but to their military

Yes, your continual blaming of Dems. and Clinton on everything that this Administration has stirred up is duly noted.

I am curious, Latin. Since you apparently don't support your rhetoric and notions with any evidence (at least none that you've presented so far), what helps you formulate your opinions and philosophy? What do you utilize substantively that helps support your notions?

I think he might be trying to pull a Steven Colbert on us? Or is he really this narrow minded? I'm not sure anymore. He's a bit too much Bill O'Reilly-is to be real.

Im not blaming shit on anyone. I mean.. dont get me wrong I like Clinton IMO he is one of the best thinkers out there. But come on his foreign policy during his admin wasnt good I just gave you an example of that.

That is why you have him writing his own bio and history. If you understand history you would know what I mean. Thats why you have him promoting healthy foods and shit in public schools, helping the people infected with HIV in other nations. I mean there is nothing wrong with that. Clinton could have done more during his admin. I had high hopes when Clinton went to office. Dude this guy had it all to be the next big president... he represented the American dream. A man that didnt come from a rich family, he worked his ass off to be where he is at. A man that could connect with every single American out there, A GREAT speaker. I thought that this man was going to be of the greatest presidents. but you know how that turned out.... With all honesty if I were to chose who to be for one day... it would be Clinton

Moving on... Okay we are training Iraqi forces... and we are going after Al Qaeda. I mean lets face it Bin Laden is hiding somewhere in Pakistan, this country gives Pakistan like Billions of dollars to go after them and other terrorist organizations. I do criticize that move because come on... Pakistan hasnt done shit. I mean Anti-American sentiment is alive is Pakistan, shit is so pure its not even funny. IDK If you remember when we got attacked on 9/11.. they where one of the first nations that started celebrating. But fuck come on... we give them money and they dont let us enter their country because the PM is afraid that American presence in his country can cause chaos

Its a special period thats happening in the ME. Because now the US knows who are their friends in the ME and who are their rivals. 5-10 yrs ago we didnt know that. Now that many ME have to step up to the plate to battler terrorism in the ME and those that support and want a stable ME for their survival is crystal clear. And hell we know those who arent doing just that and doing the opposite and just promote that Anti American sentiment and destabilizing the region.

Moving on to another topic... As I mentioned above the US most act on its moral. On what America truly stands... What the US did with N Korea was terrific... if you dont end your nuke prog we are going to fuck up your economy more that it already is. We didnt accept their terms and w.e have you... it was like if you dont do this will go ahead and fuck with your economy. That is the message that I THINK Bush is trying to get out there to the world. Not address the X nation leader but the people of the X nation. Its very complex and its going to take time to get that message out there because for many years America has done the opposite. They must win the trust of the people
IMO this is a key of the diplomacy that the US is trying to get out there.

The main message IMO the US is trying to get out there is: The US is not the problem to your problems, but its your leader the problem to all your problems. So for that matter, as I mentioned the US must act towards the world not as a cop, but to what truly stands for... what im saying is in terms to intl diplomacy nothing to do with Iraq... thats another subject.
