I don't think three-year-olds can think at that level. IIRC, noting
potential results of specific actions is the stuff of frontal brain lobe
development, which doesn't occur until about age 7+ or so. More likely, he
saw someone else being slapped, and considered it ok in a rudimentary way.

Harrry, you should have added the fact that you can do nothing but
whine about it, 'cause you, like the rest of the liberals, have no
ideas!

John, I'm a liberal, and I have a plan. I explained it to you and NOYB
over
a year ago. It's absolutely perfect. It's derived from commonly accepted
methods of discliplining children. Have you forgotten already?


Yup. It must not have overly impressed me, or I didn't see it. Tell me
again, please. But please don't adopt Harry's cut and run attitude,
'cause that won't fly.

1) Indicate to Muslim-dominant countries that we have a lottery tumbler
filled with balls containing the names of every town in their countries
with
a population greater than some number. Let's use 5,000 as a minimum
population. Show a demo of the tumbler on television, being spun by a
scantily clad woman.

2) Any time American property or life is attacked, anywhere, we will
quickly
determine if the attack appears to have been conducted by Islamic wackos.
We
don't need to know specifically who. One bunch or another usually claims
responsibility. That's how radicals have always been, regardless of
whether
they're Irish, Colombian, skinheads, Italian, SDS, whatever. It's an ego
thing.

3) Indicate to the list of governments that if an attack on us takes place
anywhere, we will spin the lottery tumbler, pick a town, and level it
completely. Might take a few days, since there's a limit as to how much
weaponry a jet can carry, but we'll be sure to do a good job. It's
important
that the attack begin with seconds of the named ball falling from the
lottery tumbler. No choking one's chicken for 8 months, as your president
did with Iraq.

4) Get our troops out of whatever country these people are whining about
at
the moment. Like Iraq. Indicate to the list of potential offenders that it
is now the job of their governments and clergy to keep their problems
within
their own borders, where they belong. In other words, "We're leaving, as
you
asked. Now you have nothing to cry and complain about. If you need to
continue complaining, do it in your own rooms, with the doors closed and
don't come out until you're ready to behave properly. If you find mullahs
who still want to preach hatred and destruction, we will gladly help you
'calm' them down, via lobotomy, prison (here), or whatever is necessary.
Drop them off at the nearest embassy and we'll handle it from there. We'll
be doing the same with Pat Robertson, Dick Cheney, and some of our other
mullahs".

Of course, the world will think this is madness, so we should demonstrate,
just once, on an unpopulated target.


Sounds like a plan. Of course, when the first bomb was dropped all the
liberals in the world would be screaming about the number of innocent
civilians killed, regardless of how many American lives were lost.

I proposed a similar scenario a couple of years ago.

Link each US city up with an equal-sized city in a "Muslim-dominant"
country. For example, if NY gets hit (population 8.1 million), buh-bye to
3/4 of Tehran (population 12 million).

But I favored nukes over conventional weapons. They're cheaper and put US
forces at less risk.

That's exactly what your president is doing in Iraq. I'd just change the
plan to give bad people an opportunity to clean up their acts. Not much of
an opportunity, but still......


The President is punishing no one now. He punished Saddam for the things Saddam did.

Don't get me wrong. I love your idea. It's like a 'one way' MAD policy! I think it would make no
difference to terrorist leaders who have shown their disregard for any life, except their own.

If this NG did not have a "Kevin" we would have to invent one. He is
priceless, and in my humble opinion brings more joy to rec.boats than anyone
else. I almost spit coffee all over my monitor when I read his post
concerning "succession of command".

Kevin is one in a million. Did you know he graduated from U of Penn?

1) Indicate to Muslim-dominant countries that we have a lottery
tumbler
filled with balls containing the names of every town in their
countries
with
a population greater than some number. Let's use 5,000 as a minimum
population. Show a demo of the tumbler on television, being spun by a
scantily clad woman.

2) Any time American property or life is attacked, anywhere, we will
quickly
determine if the attack appears to have been conducted by Islamic
wackos.
We
don't need to know specifically who. One bunch or another usually
claims
responsibility. That's how radicals have always been, regardless of
whether
they're Irish, Colombian, skinheads, Italian, SDS, whatever. It's an
ego
thing.

3) Indicate to the list of governments that if an attack on us takes
place
anywhere, we will spin the lottery tumbler, pick a town, and level it
completely. Might take a few days, since there's a limit as to how
much
weaponry a jet can carry, but we'll be sure to do a good job. It's
important
that the attack begin with seconds of the named ball falling from the
lottery tumbler. No choking one's chicken for 8 months, as your
president
did with Iraq.

4) Get our troops out of whatever country these people are whining
about
at
the moment. Like Iraq. Indicate to the list of potential offenders
that
it
is now the job of their governments and clergy to keep their problems
within
their own borders, where they belong. In other words, "We're leaving,
as
you
asked. Now you have nothing to cry and complain about. If you need to
continue complaining, do it in your own rooms, with the doors closed
and
don't come out until you're ready to behave properly. If you find
mullahs
who still want to preach hatred and destruction, we will gladly help
you
'calm' them down, via lobotomy, prison (here), or whatever is
necessary.
Drop them off at the nearest embassy and we'll handle it from there.
We'll
be doing the same with Pat Robertson, Dick Cheney, and some of our
other
mullahs".

Of course, the world will think this is madness, so we should
demonstrate,
just once, on an unpopulated target.


Sounds like a plan. Of course, when the first bomb was dropped all the
liberals in the world would be screaming about the number of innocent
civilians killed, regardless of how many American lives were lost.

You're right (about terrorist leaders). But, it just might give a few
parents a reason to pause and think before they let their kids pursue the
"seven virgins in paradise" bull****. That kind of glory isn't so much
different than what youngsters here think they'll achieve if they join a
gang and as part of the initiation rites, go out and kill a cop. Parents
*do* have some effect, sometimes.

Kevin was not questioning the theory of a war of attrition. He didn't
understand the basic concept of succession of command.

I proposed a similar scenario a couple of years ago.

Link each US city up with an equal-sized city in a "Muslim-dominant"
country. For example, if NY gets hit (population 8.1 million), buh-bye
to 3/4 of Tehran (population 12 million).

But I favored nukes over conventional weapons. They're cheaper and put
US forces at less risk.


Only stupid people would actually advocate the use of nuclear weapons.

In chess, there are two opposing teams of many players under the command

replace "killed" players within the game.

Not much of a chess player, eh?

The North Vietnamese had a virtually endless supply of players ready to
take over from those who were killed. Which is why we could never win a
war of attrition there.

And which is why we are losing Iraq.

It is hard to tell if Harry really couldn't understand the difference or he
was choosing not to. At one time, I always thought Harry would pick and
chose what he "chose to believe". Now it seems that Harry is losing it
quickly, and is having trouble telling the difference. That might be the
result of dementia or it might be a result of depression, aggravated by his
NPD. Harry's outburst at the Best Buy is very typical of those suffering
from severe depression.

Kevin really can not tell the difference and will posts 3 or 4 links showing
you that he is wrong.

A nuke costs far less than the material costs of multiple precision-guided

delivered by a submarine beneath the sea hundreds of miles away...putting
our troops at zero risk against a country like Iran.

Let me clarify my position a little bit, because I certainly don't favor a
nuke retaliation against a country as a first choice. *IF* one of our
cities is hit by a WMD attack (nuclear, or large-scale chemical/biological),
*THEN* I would favor a nuclear response. If we fell victim to an attack

The problem with a nuclear response is that there's no reason to victimize
people hundreds or thousands of miles away in countries which are in no way
involved with this mess. As far as putting our soldiers at risk, we can
deliver guided conventional missiles from B-52s at altitudes where they're
untouchable.

Your comment about cost is most certainly a joke. The cost of a few missiles
pales in comparison to what we're spending every day in Iraq, with a goal
which could be reached with a handful of Viagra correctly distributed within

I proposed a similar scenario a couple of years ago.

Link each US city up with an equal-sized city in a "Muslim-dominant"
country. For example, if NY gets hit (population 8.1 million),
buh-bye to 3/4 of Tehran (population 12 million).

But I favored nukes over conventional weapons. They're cheaper and
put US forces at less risk.
Only stupid people would actually advocate the use of nuclear weapons.
They're cheaper and put US forces at less risk.



How do you figure?


A nuke costs far less than the material costs of multiple
precision-guided warheads delivered by multiple aircraft sorties. And
the nuke can be delivered by a submarine beneath the sea hundreds of
miles away...putting our troops at zero risk against a country like Iran.

Let me clarify my position a little bit, because I certainly don't favor
a nuke retaliation against a country as a first choice. *IF* one of our
cities is hit by a WMD attack (nuclear, or large-scale
chemical/biological), *THEN* I would favor a nuclear response.






Yeah, which country would you target, Dr. Happy Tooth?

And how would you know whether *any* country had
anything to do with it?

After all, Presidummy claimed Iraq had a hand in 9-11, and it didn't.


I'd put Tehran and Damascus on the top of any list. Prior to Operation
Iraqi Freedom, I'd have had Baghdad on my list.

No one is going to let anyone pull a Presidummy Bush again. You have to be
able to prove complicity of a foreign power.

So, I ask you again:

How would you know?


I wouldn't care because it doesn't matter. Consider my method the RICO
version of combatting terrorism. Guilt by association.

All three countries that I mentioned openly aid (or aided) terrorist groups
that have killed Americans and Israelis. They're all guilty.

I sure hope you wouldn't be on the jury if I was on trial for a serious
offence.

Oh, what a spin!! So, I take it, then, that when you play chess, and
someone takes your Queen, a Rook or a Knight becomes the Queen??
Another who knows nothing of succession of command.

In a game of chess, there are two opposing players. If one gets killed, the other wins. Amen.

Sorry, but Vietnam proved the "war of attrition" techniques don't work.
You were there, right? We lost.
Harry, only someone with your extreme intelligence could relate my statement about chess to Vietnam
attrition techniques.

In chess, there are two opposing teams of many players under the command
of a king, as it were.

The game isn't over when a player is killed. Further, it is possible to
replace "killed" players within the game.

Not much of a chess player, eh?

The North Vietnamese had a virtually endless supply of players ready to
take over from those who were killed. Which is why we could never win a
war of attrition there.

And which is why we are losing Iraq.


If you and I were playing chess, and you shot me with one of your new shotguns, you would be the
winner, not me.



If the two of us were playing chess, you would lose, every time. No
shotguns would be needed. You don't think well out of the box, you don't
seem to be able to think abstractly, and all your thinking is dogmatic
and predictable.

You're be a lousy chess player.

Stick to tick-tack-toe.


You're be right. I am a lousy chess player. I can barely beat the Belarussian kid who comes in the
summer.

But then, I've never bragged about my chess abilities, or my money, or my education, or my boat(s),
or my adventures, or my wife's education, or my guns, or my letters from POTUS, or ... Well, you get
the idea.

Harry,
Is it necessary to use profanity when responding to posts?

I would suggest that your use of profanity demonstrates your inability to
express yourself so you fall back on profanity to make up for your
deficiencies. If you would like a recommendation for some books on
effective writing styles, let me know.

You obviously have a reading comprehension problem, ****-for-brains:

There is not one opinion of yours nor one piece of advice or information
from you about which I give a ****. Same goes for your questions, your
comments, your "advice," your whatever.

Save your keystrokes for someone who cares.

Is that clear enough for you? Do you get it yet, scumbag?
We're *not* going to be engaging in dialogue, now or ever.
All you will get when I bother to respond at all is a canned response.

Now, go out and do what you and your boys say you do best: go slap some

Your thinking processes are too predictable to be any good at chess. I
lost nearly 25 games straight to a computerized chess game until I trained
myself to move in ways that wouldn't necessarily be expected. That alone
moved me up to the ranks of the mediocre live chess players.
