There one of them goes, proving his drivelling naivety and ignorance.

Waste of time making any attempt to reason with these narcissists who, like all stupid people, don't know how stupid they are. If they weren't so obnoxious, you might feel sorry for them. But, due to their craving for attention and the utter belief that they are right and everyone else is wrong, contempt, not sorrow, is what they attract.

Paul,
Hamas, a recognised terrorist organisation launches an attack on innocent Israeli families and festival goers (we all saw it) and all of sudden it's the fault of "Zionist death squads"?
You are a lefty war monger and total tosser mate!

I heard today on ABC that the Palestinians demand Israel give them advance warning when retaliating. How much warning of their attacks did they give Israel ?

FireballXL5,

He claims to be a pacifist!

There is little point in taking your average narcissist to task. The more you oppose them, the more they dig their heels in. They hate criticism of any sort, and will rabbit on until their detractors are worn out. They are great with references to 'prove' their nonsense, but they suffer from conformation bias, and look only for stuff that suits their ideology and beliefs. Rule number 1: forget any conventional courtesy, and talk about them (if you must), never directly to them. They think that you are open to discussing their nonsense, and that you will eventually come around to their way of thinking, so self-righteous are they.

FireballXL5,

Hamas had no right what so ever to do what they did, no matter what their reasoning be, no matter what they call it, they have committed an atrocious crime of terrorism against innocent people, full stop! I watch the news, Israel is preparing to invade Gaza. The Israeli military will send in up to 300,000 personnel who will indiscriminately kill thousands of innocent Palestinians. If that is what takes place, what do you call it? All I hear on the forum is Israels right to revenge. Revenge by committing acts of murder against innocent Palestinians that if it be the case, is as bad as the original crime itself. I consider the Israeli leadership, not the Israelite people, Netanyahu and co, hard line Zionists, opposing equally hard line Palestinian radicals. The whole situation is a stinking bloody mess!

That’s another ploy of narcissists. Trying to appear reasonable and conciliatory - until the next time their egos lead them to lecture you on the error of your ways - or just call you names.
