What I'd like to know is if the likes of Joo, who admonish anything outside his 'mainstream' semantics would like to offer up an apology on behalf of all those mainstream sources, of which he's so fond, and with--his side-- (and without--your side) which he uses to discredit anything on this forum he disagrees with.


Hey, well this might be a continuation of an earlier debate, and I wouldn't know as I haven't posted here for a while, and it's good to see your complex diction here once again, but it is kind of forum unwritten code to offer up what you got first no? I was kind of expecting a mainstream article here?

Why ought we believe your sources in Seoul 1933?


Anyway am I happy about everything in Veitnam? No.

Was the North Vietnamese invasion of South Vietnam illegal ? - yes.

Did North Vietnam kill just as many? Yes.

Was the US correct to fight the cold war? Yes.

I bet US atrocities during the Korean war were worse than is reported.

Was the US wrong to fight that one? I don't know if it was so good for the US, but the US was morally right there too.

What is the difference between the Korean and Vietnam wars -Anyway?


If you are so against the US cold war then why do you make your living because of it? I mean why are you in Seoul in Seoul? Why aren't you in PyoungYang where they oppose US imperialism? No "evil" Korean war then no South Korea. Right?

What is the difference between the Korean and Vietnam wars -Anyway? Real trendy to oppose the US then make your living because of it.

Stratfor is better than Thirdworldtraveler. Go take the current issue of counterpunch (do you subscribe or are you a free loader) and choke on it - for real.

And the point, I'll repeat here, is that for someone fond of asking people for sources and then admonishing anything not mainstream looks a little more than silly when those very sources are not only belatedly reporting facts, but, to make matters worse for you, reporting facts long suspected by the very media you so admonish.


How often are your sources WRONG? Far more often then they are right.

Take some time off of ESLCAFE go read a couple of decent books and whip together a decent argument you Zionist *beep*.


Does the US behave worse than other in war? Probably not , probably better than most.

Getting back to it iif your arguments is so great why would so many reject them? Explain that?

Lets continue I don't think Zionism is a particularly good idea.

At any rate my arguments were always decent enough to take care of Erasatz andigothisguitar.

My arguments were also always decent enough to take care of you- you subversive fascist *beep*.

Vietnam atrocities....who committed more? The NVA or the Americans? My money would be on the NVA!

The problem is the PC morons just dont get it....you throw Joe Blow into the middle of a war forcing him to kill people, having people try to kill him he will react. Sh!t happens! Would Joe Blow run around doing this if he had been able to stay home and work on his car? Hell no! But as he isnt working on his car and is being put under stresses that some morons just cant understand they get to be armchair consciences and look down on poor Joe. Dumbasses!

New facts coming to light on war time atrocities / crimes against humanity?

Not possible is it? Haven't all the school text books already been written?

Sounds like "revisionist" history to me Idea
