Quoting TheAenigma

Well, despite my play, there is no sanctimoniousness in noticing that when headlines die down, people forget ...

 

You have no way of knowing that they forget.

I agree.  It´s a shame you had to use a tragic event to try and get a rise out of someone.

 

This is just a cheap statement.  You spend too much time around kids.  I am reminded of the expression,  "in a flat country, a hillock thinks it is a mountain"

Quoting TheAenigma

 

 

 This is why I don´t enjoy arguing with you PT - you have no argument, just silly name calling and your rather lame efforts at psychology.    I can respect an opponant, but not your playground games.

 

Perhaps you spend too much time around school children?

 

I´ve already expressed my argument.  Calling your posts idiotic does not constitute name calling.  You are anything but an idiot, which makes it all the more shameful when you make light of a serious subject.  Psychology?  I don´t understand what you´re trying to say.  But don´t worry, I understand well enough how you like to steer towards the lighthearted once you´ve realised your not on to a winner.  I think Canli replied to you well enough for you to understand your error.

 

Spending too much time with children?  I consider it an honour.  You would be surprised how mature and honourable a group of   6 year olds can be.  They absolutely do not resort to tactics seen here.  They have more sense than we adults have .

So why bother mentioning it again in your reply to my post?  I understood you the first time and you don´t like to argue with me

This certainly does not help when people are trying to help those in Gaza

 She knows the point I was making...she knows what I was hinting at.  I just decided to accept her answer gracefully because I do not want another muslim/christian/east/west war....

 

Make of that answer what you will...

Quoting CANLI

 

 

 Ã will answer your question AE,

Yes, we send aids trying to help people in Gaza, we´ve sent Doctors and materials and not just now i may add, but right after that inhuman war started!

We TRY to ensure that they can rebuild their homes.

Ýts not easy actually, we /me as a person want to help the people of Gaza, we/i dont want the money/materials we donate go to anyone else except them !

We aim really to help, not to use the money to favorite a part over another !

We are not a rich country, and of course nor rich people

But STÝLL, yes we do send aid .

 

 OK PT thinks I am happy with your answer - I was trying to be graceful.

Hmmm ok

Well, you have told me that your government send doctors and materials.  I just wondered about aid from the people - "THEIR" people (to use your expression).  Egypt is not a rich country you say, but everyone can spare a few pence or the price of a pack of cigarettes or some phone credit.  Ok how about outside of your country. What about some of those rich Saudi oil barons?  How many millions did they send? Is it true any money donated by them goes for publishing FREE qurans...

This isn´t true.  You are back pedalling. 

 

Quote:The Aenigma

Emotive phrases of "these are OUR people" and "they are killing US" were being used frequently.  There was a general feeling that anyone from the west could not possible understand the depth of the grief they felt, even though we were also horrified.

 Does my original post look like I want a war?  It was very carefully worded to not do so.
