Well, considering that my comments are my own thoughts derived from my readings and logical deduction, I guess I should consider that a compliment.

Thank you.

Kind of reminds me of the time that one of my professors accused me of plagiarism when I wrote one of my theme papers on the Sandinista takeover of Nicaragua. Apparently, I was so well spoken she couldn't believe that I had actually wrote the paper. But I had properly sourced everything and was able to defend my logic to her satisfaction she was forced to give me an "A".

But then again, there was that professor who taught "The Politics of the Vietnam War" who just wouldn't accept the research paper I did on why the US failed to cut the Ho Chi Minh trail, based heavily on the views and analysis of Norman Hannah, an who wrote "The Key to Failure : Laos and the Vietnam War":

Seems my professor was a former marine who was more interested in TSB (Traumatic Stress Syndrome), than the policy decisions that prevented the US from thwarting the N. Vietnamese agression.

Maybe you need to read some of the same books... In fact, maybe you should look up my old American Foreign Policy professor Mansour El-Kikhia (ironically who is Libyan.. :0), who ingrained into me the fundamentals of how macro-economics impact foreign policy, the market, and our very way of life.
