As I said days ago, one can not "prove" the make-up of the "insurgents as a whole".

Then one shall not make allegations as if he CAN. Especially when countered with "If you say so", one shall definitely not answer with "It's well documented", as if one can easily show such proof:

siliconinvestor.com

Then again, perhaps one can say whatever he wants on this thread as long as one knows he has protective angels who will flock to his side whenever he gets cornered. It seems one can get away with making such groundless allegations on this thread with no problems.

on the other hand, you have presented ZERO evidence to counter the implications, however inconclusive, of that sample

Why on earth would I have to?

You make an allegation, you support it. It is not MY DUTY to prove you wrong.

If you can throw away Latin names of logical fallacies, you MUST know this, the most basic of debate rules.

I'd do it, but I'm busy with other stuff I find more important and interesting.

Oh OK then. Sure. "Other stuff more important and interesting". Must remember that line for next time someone asks me for proof or support of what I post on these threads, LOL.
