re: Its bad enough that you are so ignorant of basic military terms, but than on top of that you get arrogant about your supposed relatively superior knowledge. You want me to look in the dictionary, while you are calling defensive battles and hit and run raids a sustained offense. Next thing I suppose I'll be accused of a childish focus on anal retentive minutia when I argue that black isn't white, or that the sun rises in the east not the west. Defense is offense, up is down, in is out, just ask John...

Listen Tim, keep arguing this stupid point, it makes you look like an idiot, and I sort of enjoy seeing you look like an idiot. And i have plenty of time...
I suspect your next response will be 5000 words trying to defend your semantic anal retentive stupidity... LOL
