You were the one talking about "insurgents"- by quoting a post about insurgent violence- in Iraq (wihtout realizing it, apparently) and then saying you weren't. I'm not interested in taking the time to read a post, only to have you say you weren't saying what was in your post. You are not making sense. I understand you'd like to make it all about me. People who make mistakes seem to like to try to do that. But I'm not buying it. Let's go to your post" Were the "insurgents" doing any of this before the Bush neocons went in? ANSWER: NO! Are you kidding? Yes. The death and destruction resulting from the 8 year Iran-Iraq war, the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, the sanctions on Iraq from '91-'00 and Saddam's killing of Iraqis far outnumbers what has gone on since Gulf War 2." Now the post you quoted asks if the insurgents were "doing any of this" before Bush went in. Your answer "yes" Therefore logically your post compared the insurgents to everything after "yes". You may not realize that it did that, but it did. You are quite clearly comparing what has "gone on" since Gulf War 2 (the civil war, for example), with what went on before. I'm amazed you don't realize what it is you wrote. Maybe Bush is like that? Which explains a lot about what is happening right now.
