Jacob doesn't do personal attacks; he critiques the Bush administrations' policies

Well, I think the word 'critique' is a little kind. Jacob repeatedly asserts that Bush is a fascist, turning the American government into a totalitarian state, and accuses the Americans of all sorts of hypocrisies. He claimed that displaying Qusay's and Uday's bodies to journalists to try to prove they were dead was 'gloating' over 'dehumanized' dead equivalent to 19th fighters gloating over dead Indians.

Sometime Jacob has been answered very rationally, sometimes he has provoked exasperated personal remarks. True, he doesn't attack personally; for that you must give credit. But he is also espousing some quite irrational ideas and has shown himself impervious to any form of evidence or argument against them.
