re: #5 Destro

As I noted the other day, ‘pivot and attack’ just won’t work. Why you insist on highlighting both yur intellectual ethical shortcomings are most curtious.

The article I wrote had nothing to do with settlers, per se, but rather protest by Palestinians in attempts to stop their construction.

You can pretend otherwise but anyone reading the article would come to that conclusion after the first paragraph or so.

Once again, you have been less than truthful and once again, you’ve dug yourself another hole. Why do you suppose that is? What do you think it is that compels you to dishonest? What is it do you think that drives that dysfunctional pathology?

I understand you are a ‘one trick pony’ but the pivot and attack mode of argument has long been discredited. It is an effective tactic for those easily distracted but anyone with even a modicum of rational argument skills and critical thinking skills laughs or scoffs at the childish tactics.

Also, in yet another display of silly pivot and attack type of argument, you equate my article which dealt with protests against the settlements with protests against the barricade. Further, the Rachel Corrie debacle was had it origins in a house demolition situation, not in a protest against settlements..

Once again, you’ve been caught in an attempt to deliberately mislead.

I must admit, it is amusing to me to watch you attempt to a) justify your previous fraudulent remarks and b) watch you attempt to find more false premises to make your point.

Let me give you the opportunity to paraphrase a previous remark

One of the symptoms that gives you away as a someone with a PD (or possible BPD) is your need to have the last word and the need to be smarter than anyone who might question or challenge you.

It may not be relevant, germane or even coherent, but you have to the last word. In your mind that somehow legitimizes your view no matter how uninformed or inappropriate (your recent remarks re terror victims was astonishing in it’s callousness. A healthy person would have said, ‘I’m sorry that happened- that is a terrible tragedy’). You could have gone on to make your point but your lack of decency and empathy really isn’t surprising. In your mind, blaming the victim is perfectly acceptable,

It is quite interesting to see you constantly ‘move the goalposts’ or attempt to change the subject when confronted with someone who makes a more cogent argument. A healthy person would say, ‘I didn’t know that, I need to think about that’ or ‘I was wrong. I stand corrected’. You are emotionally incapable of doing that. You may make a show of doing that every now and then (the emphasis on a very public show of false humility) but you don’t talk to people- you talk down to or at them.

And I haven’t even touched the control issues.

I have no doubt you will not address the issues I have raised in previous comments but instead will find away to redefine the conversation and/or attack me- which will only prove my point.

Sometimes it is just better to move on. You’ll figure that out someday- though that is unlikely in the near future.

In the meantime, it is fascinating to watch

Keep looking- I suppose there may be one or two examples of concerted protests again the settlers over the years.

Maybe- it’s possible.
