I am finding your continual use of straw man arguments to be both mendacious and tiresome. As you care so little for your own credibility, I care less what you think of mine.
Given that the dispute started when AC claimed that the west was being attacked primarily because of the west's action against ISIS in Iraq and Syria, and so we should cower in the corner. A position you subsequently supported. I pointed out the major flaw in that thinking in that several countries were attacked that either have never attacked ISIS, or were attacked before action was considered, and that the attacks in France were planned prior to France's involvement.
You then ignored the other countries (thus conceding the dispute to me), pointing out only that France's attacks on ISIS predated the ISIS attacks on France, which I had never disputed. Finally, you then concede that the original attacks in France were probably planned before France's involvement (which shreds your argument) then admonish me for claiming that all attacks by ISIS were planned prior to France's involvement (which I did not).
Since you failed so miserably, I would suggest that you are surrounded by the fog of delusion which could be resolved by removing your head from your rectum and emerge blinking into the harsh light of reality.
