Just remember something, folks, if Duchy describes a position I supposedly have, she is almost always lying.
I have supported, like the PLO and the majority of Palestinians for decades, a Palestinian State comprising virtually all the lands seized by Israel in 1967. Everyone here who has discussed this subject with me, including some who have virulently disagreed with some of my positions like sh76, knows this. Duchy know it as well.
So ignore her and maybe she'll go away.

@no1marauder saidYour obviously are not aware of our geography but saying you planted a bomb on or in Merseyside is about as vague as it gets and clearly either a fig leaf for the terrorists or another example of the terrorist strategy of drawing victims into the blast area. What it wasn’t was evidence of the terrorists trying to avoid the loss of innocent civilians lives. If your not a terrorist and your not intent on killing children probably do not plant a bomb in a shopping precinct.
No, I won't play by such rules.
The discussion was about the claim that the IRA were "terrorists" with the only evidence given the Warrington bombing (obviously not the one at the gas storage facility but in front of the Boots and McDonald's). IF the IRA gave the specific warnings it claims, then the action was a justifiable one under the rules of war and not a target ...[text shortened]... reckless behavior on the part of the IRA.
I don't have enough information to judge which is true.

@kevcvs57 saidThat particular guideline has always been there, it’s not new.
What will I call someone who posts something that’s blatantly idiotic?
Answers must fall within posting guidelines.

@sleepyguy saidAnd...
It would improve the tone of discourse on the forum even more to ban the use of the pejorative "racist".
Let's all agree, shall we?
- Hateful
- Lying
- white
- male
- Rapist
- Troll
Oh and “Pathological”

@kazetnagorra saidThe word “racist” is overused, wrongly used, used as an insult and has become as meaningless as “troll”.
Perhaps spades should just consider remodeling to a different tool if they don't like being called a spade.

@no1marauder saidThat is a fine gesture, well done.
In the spirit of compromise and hopefully increased goodwill, I intend to change my Forum avatar as soon as I can decide on an appropriate replacement. I will keep the work of art as my Header on My Profile page, however.
Edit, although I’m a little apprehensive about asking who your current one is and why? And I do still find your support of what most people see as terrorism to be a blot on your credibility.
But nevertheless it’s a pleasing move.
