Now see, I thought this was condescending (degrading is something else again): "Surely, you must be kidding..if not, then unfortunately, you have no accurate grasp of the history of terrorism events..and quite important, imo, it's already been obvious that you(Eleutheria) and your fellow Dems who have not lived nor worked nor traveled in Muslim/Arab countries(nor have much contact with Arabs and other Muslim immigrants in this country), have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to the Muslim culture and how we should handle terrorism.. because if you did, it would be a given to you that ONLY diplomacy does NOT work with them..just like ONLY Military does NOT work..." I didn't find my post particularly condescending, and certainly not degrading at all. Just shows, two people can look at the same things and see something totally different. That's what makes the world the way it is. Was it the URL I asked for that was condescending and degrading? :-) I didn't think I'd get one, but your technique for avoiding the issue is delicious. "Can you give me a URL to a senator or representative advocating "only diplomacy" in the effort to combat terrorism? I expect a link from you on this matter, or a retraction of the above. Will I be disappointed, I ask myself?"
