Greenwald linked to Ackerman. I don't dispute that.

-- independentminded

Well then you can't "dispute" that you were "cherry picking" in your previous comment what information Greenwald made available to the readers. Or, put another way, you were lying.

Steve Klein - Your (sic) pathetic!--rjcrane

Stop complaining Klein. Besides, ass,--Derbig Mooser

Is Greenwald cherry-picking information?

Greenwald doesn't tell us that Iran was obligated to inform IAWA of any intent to build one of these facilities; not just prior to it being operational. Read this excerpt:

-- independentminded

Greenwald didn't post the whole fucking PDF into his post, but he posted a link from Ackerman which contained the exact part of the wording from the PDF that you are accusing Greenwald of "cherry-picking" out of his post.

The link can be found in the following sentence of Glenn's post:

By contrast, The Washington Independent's Spencer Ackerman spent all day yesterday diligently and critically grappling with the question...

Is this what you would like to see? A symmetrical conflict between the West and Islam or Islamic states? Because if it is - and I do believe there may be some kind of symmetry in the not too distant future - you are going to rue the day you longed for this symmetry. Mark my word. Who is this blind that you look forward to a nuclear 'holocaust'? You or me?

-- Steve Klein

One of the more longer-winded straw constructions I've ever read.

By the way, please be a man of your word and stop replying to people who have, under your definition, disrespected you. There are a number of them now that have, under your definition, done so. I'm sure the list will continue to grow.

Iran cannot arm these deadly proxies and claim innocence.

-- Steve Klein

Leaving aside your claims of who is arming whom, and who is and who isn't a "deadly proxie"...Iran-Contra. Where were you on that one?

I would have loved it if some frustrated patron had ended up tossing a cup of ice or something at the Distinguished Gentleman From Connecticut and screaming, "Hey! Down in front! Shut the fuck up!"

Followed by a 16 year old theater usher walking down the isle with his or her small flashlight and stopping at Lieberman's row and then saying, "Sir, we're going to have to ask you and your guest to leave. Please follow me out".

...but blathering on incessantly to tell everyone else not to?

On Accountability Now:

Don't waste your money folks and don't encourage others to waste theirs. Seriously, save it. Save it for something meaningful,

On not creating his own blog:

Thanks for the suggestion but I think I can probably be more helpful to more people by posting here.

On Glenn Greenwald moving over to Salon:

But the concept...what you are getting at (I think) is why I was so irritated that he signed onto Salon in the first place.

Adnoto apparently thinks that Glenn Greenwald should just hit the streets wearing a sandwich board to get his words out to the public with. But then, if Glenn did that, where would Adnoto go to "be helpful to more people"? Right now, and for the past few years, Adnoto has been able to come here to Salon, aka, "The System" and use Glenn's space to "be helpful to more people". Why should adnoto go to all the trouble of creating a blog when he can leach off of Glenn (and Salon) to tell everyone not to buy what Glenn is 'Selling'?

How come a back-stabbing sonofabitch sees himself as a revolutionary hero?

Kill! Kill! Kill!

That's the mantra ... it's like the theme song to Friday 13th or something.

-- jmatrixrenegade

Or the mantra repeated by that DFH, Arlo Guthrie, while jumping up and down in his underwear at the recruiter office of "the shrink".

Allowing yourself to be romanced by silly assed satire.

-- adnoto

Isn't satire what you do? I know I tune in to read The Adventures of The Mighty Adnoto as he takes on the world with his...his, hunt for someone to lead the revolution.

This is my by-by-present for UT - I had a ball!!

Are you going away somewhere?

I missed this part:

AfterDowningStreet.org defines itself as "a nonpartisan coalition working to expose the lies that create and sustain wars and occupations and to hold accountable those responsible." Not exactly a neutral observer, so I think we would again have to ask about the sampling methodology as well as their motives.

--wgsalter

After Downing Street wasn't responsible for the sampling methodology nor did ADS ask the question so what difference does it make what downing street's motives are since they had nothing to do with the poll question? Zogby was responsible for the poll question and the sampling methodology, not ADS.

The poll was conducted by Zogby International, the highly-regarded non-partisan polling company. The poll interviewed 1,200 U.S. adults from October 29 through November 2.
