[FPSPACE] FPSpacer in the news re missile defense in Europe

[Phil Clark]

Dear Mr Grodine

I have no interest whatsoever in getting into any kind of "slanging match" with you or anyone else.

I have my own political views which may or may not coincide with yours.   However, FPSPACE is NOT the forum for such views.

I am fully-aware of the other issues which you raise and I do not ignore them.   I am civilised and sensible enough to realise that FPSPACE is not a political forum.

Message to Dave Woods - you may wish to consider that this thread is now terminated.

  Well, Phil, if you look up in the sky at night you might notice an International Space Station passing overhead.

  Now its all very nice to use FPspace to pretend that Iran is a demon that is going to launch IRBMs at Europe, and that thus ABM bases in eastern Europe are necessary.

  And its all very nice to pretend that Israel does not dominate US strategic and diplomatic problems, and that zionists are not active in the media and political process here in the US - or for that matter dominate public discussion, including forums like FP space.

  It is also very nice to pretend that the holocaust was not a European phenomena, or that pogroms did not take place in czarist Russia, for that matter.

  There are now 160,000 US troops between Iran and Syria, no public discussion of the Office of Special Plans, and the US debt has gone up by $2 Trillion.

  Welcome to the nightmare.
