    Be more even handed and responses from other posters will be less critical.
    Sadly, you have the intelligence IMO to do so but are far too indoctrinated to see reason anymore as your credibility has been slowly frittered away and your posts just become meaningless propaganda and you an object of derision. Sorry to say but there you have it.
    That fairly well sums it up, HC.


    Let's take Harry as an example, another 'nemesis' of OhNo - Harry heaps scorn on China . . . but also on the UK, US, Australia, Russia . . . whoever and whichever. If the issue deserves Harry's scorn - it receives scorn.

    OhNo and Klondyke reserve theirs only for the western nations, mainly the US, and are complete apologists for any critique or sleight of Russia/China.

    As HC quite correctly writes: Balance

    The constant whataboutism and deflections are nauseating and detract from discussion.

    Thank you for your post.

    As I have stated many times I post "news" from Asia, generally from Asian sources, in the Euro Topics thread. Whether TD members accept the "news" as factual is their prerogative. As with other global "news sources" doubts exists as to their factual content.

    There was and still is, scant coverage from Asian sources but many posts from other sources. There was therefore, in my opinion, a place and an resource which the TH members may find helpful or informative. We have few members residing in China who are able to or desire to post Asian topic. There are exceptions. Some it's personal views, from others it's what some may view as foreign propaganda.

    I also reply in other threads illustrating the racist comments of some TD members and occasional Chinese reports that fit the thread topic.

    The "news" is not concocted by me, the posts are daily available worldwide. If some wish to post Asian news from Asian source nobody is stopping them. Their are many posters here on TD who adequately fullfill the "balance" requirement.

    If the "other posters" replied with actual relevant questions or rebuttals as opposed to personal and racist statements I believe the TD site would welcome it. Or maybe they enjoy the gladiatorial to and fro.

    Unfortunately the "other posters" forum style is embedded in their psyche.

    But the other three?

    The Syrian and Libyan regimes crumbled in the Arab spring. In the former you had the dictator du jour using military weapons against his own citizens, and Russia propped him up, not the USA.

    In the latter you had the dictator du jour using military weapons against his own citizens, and the West took him out.

    Syrian deaths: 400,000

    Libyan deaths (and this is the higher end of the estimates): 25,000

    Libya is semi stable, with a government that doesn't really exert true national control, and maybe it's future is as a federation of states like the UAE.

    But its oil production is back to around 75% of where it was, so it's not quite the mess the seppo haters here like to pretend (or perhaps they are just too stupid to see the big picture).

    As for Lebanon, exactly what the fuck are you bringing that into the conversation for? That was a Christian-run country that had its own Arab Spring in 1975, and the Muslim majority ended up taking over. The US didn't fight for any side, it was part of UN Peacekeeping forces designed to end the civil war and it succeeded. Lebanon's problems since are primarily sectarian, because Iran props up Hezbollah so they have a supply line to get weapons near the Israeli border which of course occasionally attracts Israel's "interest". The Sunni in Lebanon are not too happy with the situation, especially since the Iranians have a nasty habit of bumping off leaders they don't like (something to remember when whingeing about Israel bumping off nuclear scientists they don't like).

    Why? It's applicable . . . a screeching old woman (obviously LD) in a cloud of SADs . . .

    Should you really be telling anyone what to do, Skidmark?

    Sadly, you have the intelligence IMO to do so but are far too indoctrinated to see reason anymore as your credibility has been slowly frittered away and your posts just become meaningless propaganda and you an object of derision. Sorry to say but there you have it.
    Now that was a great comment.

    ^^ Read my post above....# 82.

    It is apposite, without any screeching.

    You, on the other hand, appear to be a troll and keyboard warrior. Plus TD forum's serial know-it-all.

    You're a whiny little old bitch, pull your head in, Karen. I'm sure you feel all warm and fuzzy now that Skidmark is supporting you . . . but it is Skidmark.

    Cloudy again?
