"I never created a strawman, I just showed yours and asked you to see how wrong it was and admit it. Something you still haven't done. "
What was your strawman?
"But the who started it seems an tacit acceptance."
And my example that you never admitted was wrong?
"Of course you leaving out the facts that the same thing has happened against Iran seems like a tacit acceptance that you think it is ok if it happens to them. Right? It seems like it right? How wrong would I be to assume that? "
See how you assumed that I thought it was ok because my answer back to you didnt state that I was against it but only stated that they had reasons is a strawman just like if I assumed you were ok with it on the other side because your statement never said you werent against it is the same thing?
If you have posts where you stated that and I replied back to you then feel free to show them.
