Your argument, in contrast, has collapsed, and you have run away from it.<br /><br />You, Ema, specifically claimed " The attacks never threatened USA government, the people's support of USA government, or the civilian leadership of USA government.". These were your three main points. One, two, and three. I pointed out the incontrovertible facts on the first and third of your points. I did not question the second one. Two of your points are wildly off, and third one is OK.<br /><br />Your response was to run away from the points you were wrong on, and attempt again and again to "prove" to me your second point... which I never contested at all. <br /><br />I "follow along" quite well. I apologize to Ema for confusing Ema by reading her arguments as she writes them, and not being as nimble as she as she shifts and evades.<br /><br />Ema needs to type real slow. Slower than she has.

Try not to get lost in your projection of what you want Ema Nymton to have said; follow along.<br /><br />""Putting the aircraft attacks on USA in context, the attacks themselves were visually - propaganda gold. But that is all. At no time was USA as a country at risk. The attacks never threatened USA government, the people's support of USA government, or the civilian leadership of USA government.""<br /><br />As the _whole_paragraph_ makes clear, beyond the propaganda gold, the underlying people of USA's support for USA was _NEVER_ threatened by the air craft attacks in Virginia or New York.<br /><br />One of the fundamental bedrocks tenets is that USA people believe in USA's form of government and the rule of law. USA people have seen their leaders die in office before and have seen the processes of succession of government continue unaffected. USA people may have been shocked to see the attacks on USA soil but that is all. The loss of general officers in the Pentagon did not lead to military mutiny and the loss of civilian executive office personnel would not have led to the collapse of USA government. (Yes. The actually physical safety of the individual civilian office holder may have been threatened, but the civilian office holder was never threatened (there is a difference).)<br /><br />Ema Nymton apologizes to dmarks for confusing dmarks.<br /><br />Ema Nymton<br />~@:o?<br />.Ema Nymtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291372077565212886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-50690843907409862742014-09-12T17:42:21.565-05:002014-09-12T17:42:21.565-05:00That's ironic.

I am reasonably sure Ema is not irritated with me for the remark she responded to so acerbically, but probably for my less restrained, less polite remarks about our president -- a man who for some unfathomable reason a few diehard liberals like Ema still support.<br /><br />I don't begrudge anyone his point of view no matter how much I may disagree with it, but for the life of me I cannot understand why we have to be so RUDE, INTEMPERATE and UNKIND towards each other as we tend to be today. It isn't matter of Left v. Right anymore, since both sides indulge in boorishness almost equally now.<br /><br />Nevertheless, I think it the better part of wisdom to try to be as cordial and diplomatic as possible, unless provoked by the sort of repeated personal attacks characteristic of trolls. <br /><br />Trolls are a lot like like Islamists in that they deserve no consideration whatsoever.

The only fault here is you for writing what you wrote. That I read what you wrote is not a problem on my part.<br /><br />The attacks directly threatened the USA government, including its civilian leadership. This includes the hundreds or thousands who would have died on Capitol Hill had the "Let's Roll" heroes not overcome daunting odds and stopped Flight 93. It includes fifty-nine federal employees who died. To deny what the main things the attacks did is to belittle, and to claim that they did nothing.<br /><br />Your claim "The attacks never threatened USA government, the people's support of USA government, or the civilian leadership of USA government." is the opposite of what happened, on two of the three points. The attacks threatened the civilian leadership and the USA government both.<br /><br />It is perfect reading comprehension on my part to question your claim that a huge airliner on its way to impact with the US Capitol Building was not a threat to the USA civilian government.<br />dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.com
