best not to quote people if you don't want to give the impression of referring to them.Sorry, that wasn't meant to be a reference to you.

it's this sort of thing that may briefen your sojourn here.You're a cunt Fred!
Given you've completely misread what I've said, "or what? I don't actually know" is probably the only relevant sentence in your post.
Allow me to simplify things for you. States and terrorists will always find a way to justify their actions, however barbaric those actions are, and they commit those actions not because they're raging uncontrollable mad dogs, but because they make rational assessments of what they can get away with, and how their actions serve their strategic aims.
they're all made in the image of god so yesDo you honestly think ISIS or The Taliban are of the same mould as the Israeli government?
You seem to be saying that this was a revenge attack - some bastard had his kid (or his nephew, someone close and young) killed by some other bastards, and in response he killed a load of kids belonging to the bastards he blamed or at least close enough to them to make them worry.
And then tons more kids will be killed.
Not really. Amis doesn't attribute such actions to long-term strategic behaviour. His view is more toward such actions as attempts to achieve short-term tactical objectives. This isn't really consonant with the history of most terrorism committed under the (often inaccurately applied) label of "Islamism", which since the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan has been about bringing about specific change, both within the ummah and without.
Is the state of Israel "primitive and uncivilised"?.
You point scoring prick. WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?

i think you'll find the taliban targeted a whole school of 1,000+ children and killed 9 of their teachers. don't try to make out you give a fuck about this attack when you haven't been bothered to find out what happened, and your prime concern here has been to score points off meInconsequential as far as Pickers is concerned, no doubt.
He's likely knocking one out over this because it's given him the opportunity to be a boring cunt about the term "savage", wrt Taliban targeting 150 odd kids and immolating their teacher.
next time you attempt humour try harder.It was an attempt at humour, which you obviously didn't appreciate.

i'll have to do the work then as you're incapableOh fuck off, dog cunt.
Lemon Eddy has already made you look an arse on this thread.
Do you really want to compound that?
i'll say one thing for lemon eddy, he was appalled by yesterday's attack. but where he's a master debater, you're just a wanker.So good he quoted twice.

strange. none of your posts mention your abhorrence of the attack. you don't seem to find it vile, to find it atrocious, to find it cowardly: you've certainly not said it. the nearest you come is in your first post on this thread, where you say that targeting schoolchildren is primitive and uncivilized. the only reason you're on this thread in the first place is to score points off me, and the only reason you're on this thread now is looking for an argument while you're pissed.Most straight-headed people are.
Others try to score points about 'savagery'.

not for me to tell you to condemn anything. but i would have thought you'd condemn this sort of thing off your own bat.Well "scoring points" off you is a piece of piss, tbf.
You want me to condemn the action?
Done.

why not go to sleep and come back when you're prepared to read posts instead of just look at them.So condemnation is only valid if it's posted on Urban75?
You daft turd.

if you want a row you might make some small effort to avoid looking to 3rd parties like a drunken bum. you might try to avoid looking like a clewless tosspot wanker. you might try one day. but after the sun's over the bowsprit you're all too often one over the eight.Why would anyone waste time reading the shit that you post unless it was for a row?
Ya navel gazing wanker.

tbh i was forcefed beef tonight. but there you go.Spymaster Pickman's model
Just have a gander at yersels,
Nothing more to add,other than a disappointment that two otherwise decent posters could bring their personal beefs onto this thread.
