If your point is irrelevant I'm going to bloody well *say* it's irrelevant. Just as your post above about the dams affecting the marsh arabs was irrelevant because those dams were *not* designed to provide fresh water, but only to drain the swamps the Arabs lived in!
If you think it is relevant: prove it.

And yet again you reach for irrelevancies to try to cover up your losing arguments.

Those who are now suffering cancers or who have been maimed or killed by unexploded cluster weapons or who were made ill or died due to the lack of fresh water are just more "collateral damage".

Now who's quibbling over words!
I believe that you yourself have called that kind of rhetoric an appeal to emotion, or words to that effect. (and lambasted me for it in the past)

What words exactly did I put into your mouth? All I said was: .

All you did was imply that I was *only* attacking "our side" and hinting that, thereby, I was somehow "supporting" the other side because I wasn't criticising them too. That is nonsense.

but if you want me to condemn Turkey for it's human rights abuses I will ....while we are at it, would you care to condemn Saddam for his and terrorists in general for theirs?

Certainly, I have never said that I *wouldn't*.
