UT you are arguing 'Saddam's aluminum tubes' logic again. It’s not everyone who is daft. But if you continue with denials and no supporting facts, then it is only that person who is daft.

You don't like what was posted. Then - and why do I have to say this to UT repeatedly - post your own facts. Why do you 'nay-say' as if that provides something useful? You did the same exact thing with alumimun tubes. Cited sources are not secret. You seem to have very limited information sources. Or you have a bad habit of filtering out information you don't like. You are doing your aluminum tube act again. Insist you are right and yet not provide a single useful fact. Instead you attack the messenger as if that proves something.

UT do you still deny why Fouad Siniora gave his speech - in English? Avoiding comment so as to not admit you were again wrong? Why then are you so silent? Feelings don't make analysis. The speech was given in English so that even UT would appreciate what Fouad Siniora was saying when he told Condi Rice to not return until she changes her tune. Sorry UT, but that fact still remains a fact no matter how many times you deny it - no matter how many times you instead attack the messenger. Nothing secret about that blunt and undiplomatic statement from Fouad Siniora - no matter how many times you deny it - and provide no facts for your 'feelings'.

It is a fact that the US was running interference for Israel's attacks on Lebanon. This is the Cheney doctrine by proxy. That is not even debatable AND UT provides no facts to dispute this. The debatable part is how long can the US keep running this interference. The debatable part is how severe this conflict might escalate. Instead, why not answer those real questions?
