learn to read, buddy. i was pointing out that he doesn't have any arguments to refute the points i made about his scenario. those obviously don't have to (and as you rightly, but also entirely unnecessarily, pointed out simply CAN'T) be 'proven' with absolute certainty - but an assumption based on a well documented record and made statements regarding certain topics can still be a refutation of a hypothetical that is NOT based on such things, but on conditions that would be highly unlikely to be met.

it's really silly that i have to explain such basics to you, just because can't admit that you tried to defend a weak argument by acting like all hypotheticals were equally (un)likely, and then had to move the goal post to 'well you simply can't PROVE it'...

Do you normally tell people they said things they never actually said? You would make a great journalist :rolleyes:

what did i claim you "said" that you "never actually said" or clearly suggested? do you always just run and dodge when you're called out for something? you would make a great dodgeball player...

And when you quoted me saying you made an educated guess and then changed it to "random guess" and "wild guess".

Your turn. The 2nd one is pretty cut and dry. You purposely switched out educated for wild and random so it fit your narrative. :rolleyes:

look at my reply. what you clearly suggested (by highlighting the word "guess", and not "education" [sic]) and then had to backpedal (which i accepted and pointed out that you don't have an argument then), is nothing i made up. you're just desperately making this about semantics because you simply can't admit that i was right about criticising blackx' hypothetical, let's just call it what it is.

I highlighted guess because even an educated guess is still a guess.

You literally were changing words in my quote to try and win an argument. So yeah let's call this what it is.

It’s their own fault. Trump doesn’t make these decisions in a vacuum. It’s these same generals/intel leaders that probably came to him and advised on droning this general.
