Not all Westerners...Just the smart ones. You're a perfect example of why.

No, I don't see muslims as enemies. I do see those who kill civilians, in order to push their own agenda, as criminals though. I don't see why israeli or palestinian children have to die, just because grown up idiots can't smarten up and make peace. Come after me to kill me though, then you'll be my enemy. I suppose Usama and his bearded cohorts are my enemies. Not that I think I did something to deserve it though.

Japan is on of our greatest allies. We love the Japanese and they love us. There are even more Japanese than German cars on our roads! That's what decisive victory does. We fought, we won, we made up. Now Japanese are abundant and happy, living a peaceful life! Would you like us to drop a bomb on you too? We have 10,000 of them!

We all know he's fake. BTW, you're way too obsessed with and often misuse the strawman thing in the same way that dennisd45 overuses generalizations. It's kind of dumb.

Possibly, but it seemed to fit the situation. I mean, whoever created this guy created him to be easily argued against, just like James the communist.

BTW, Wikipedia agrees with my assessment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strawman[^]
Some guy on the Internet said:
As a rhetorical term, "straw man" describes a point of view that was created in order to be easily defeated in argument; the creator of a "straw man" argument does not accurately reflect the best arguments of his or her opponents, but instead sidesteps or mischaracterizes them so as to make the opposing view appear weak or ridiculous

Nope. As Wikipedia states, a strawman argument must mischaracterize the original argument and I never do that. This is an example of a strawman: Person A: Israel is a terrorist state! They are killing civilians! Person B: What are you talking about? Don't you eat beef? You have to kill in order to eat beef! See...Person A is talking about killing people and Person B is talking about killing cows, thereby try to draw a parallel argument while mischaracterizing the first. The following is not a strawman: Person A: We need to reach a diplomatic solution between Lebanon and Israel! All this fighting will not succeed! Person B: We attempted to be diplomatic with Germany and all it got us was WWII. A decisive military victory is needed to determine a final end to the multiple conflicts. See...In this example (which I follow often), I did not mischaracterize the original argument. Rather, I provided an example of their argument in practice and the end results. The former argument is a strawman and the latter is not. You often confuse the supporting evidence of contrary arguments as strawman.

Dude, I never meant that _you_ were constructing a strawman argument, but Pumpkinhead sure was. You were, however, very successfully arguing against a "straw man." Hence my phrase 'strawman off of,' which probably could have been clearer on my part. Edit: Naaaahhhhhhhhh, it wouldn't have made a difference, because you're just a shrill, reactionary, screeching dipshit anyway. -- modified at 16:21 Wednesday 2nd August, 2006
