11. If your purpose is propagandizing you are correct

though I am not sure if this thread is even productive in that manner.

If you are interested in communication, then no, repeating yourself over and over does not do anything for your attempts to communicate your point.

In the spirit of your replies though I will repost my response:

Compare your credentials with his:

From : http://www.atimes.com

Dr Christof Lehmann, born 1958 in West Germany, was Advisor for Research in Psycho-traumatology to Yasser Arafat and survivors of the Sabra Shatila massacre in 1982, secured a doctoral degree in clinical psychology in 1986. He was adviser to Joshua Nkomo on the impact of torture and psychological trauma on conflict solution and reconciliation in Zimbabwe's politics in 1986-1990, and advised Nelson Mandela on social politics, public mental health and the effect of psychological trauma on peace and reconciliation in 1994-1997.

I like to check before I give a source credence. Dr. Lehmann has a very distinguished history that goes far beyond this bio and has been around important people, events, and is himself been part of those histories. It is a shame that you feel it so important to try to discredit anyone that does not agree with your politics. You do your own mind a disservice.
