    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    Quite possibly; Churchill too Then why did you juxtapose them in a discussion on the morality of our bombing of Germany? How is any of this relevant to a discussion about the bombing of civilians in WW2? I'm not a member of the Labour Party, so your assertion is inaccurate Nope: firstly, I'm...

    You can get chlorine from your local swimming pool...assuming there are any left in Syria

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    "The Nazis did it so that makes it OK" is scarcely a good starting point for a discussion on situation ethics eg: Holocaust, anyone? This is kind of the point I'm driving at: the 'moral justification' put forward by some here for targeting civilians seems perilously close to the concept of...

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    Yes, but I don't think we should be taking lessons in morality from or measuring our ethical standards according to Hitler and the Nazis, do you?

    Yes, I believe so

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    Patronising, much? Anyway, that didn't cause the surrender; the German people didn't surrender to the Allies, the German Army did, when it was finally beaten in the field.

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    Yes because we have belatedly tried to learn from our mistakes, atone for our past sins and be less crappy towards other races

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    Yes and the Germans bombed us too. Neither ended the war: only the defeat of the German army did. So, no, not ignorant

    I think we largely bombed Dresden not you

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    That was wrong, and Dresden was a war crime: it had no military value and was crammed with refugees.

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    Seemed to work in Germany in 1918 and 1945.... Deliberately targeting civilians is murder.

    On that basis, the 9/11 bombers were fighting American oppression, then. Happy with that?

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    Ah, I see: the IRA blowing up children were "fighting our oppression". I don't think I need to hear more...

    High probability of fleeing terrorism more like it. Like I said, most of the terrorism I've seen in my lifetime is home grown.

    I'm sorry that you find the truth of Scripture amusing

    London Goes All “Stop and Frisk”.

    From 1969 to 1998 they tended to be white and British citizens. The 2005 bombers were British. Do you have a point?

    My country is defined by Phil 3:20. What is your country and where is your citizenship?

    Nope. You guessed wrong.
