only a simpleton, who is capable of only thinking in black and white, assumes he was even still in Afghanistan when the first troops hit the ground. He may have been, he may have already flown the coop. There is no way to know that 1, or 1,000,000 more troop(s) would have made a difference. No way to know. That's the bigger picture.

"No way to know. That's the bigger picture." is that your new slogan for the war on terror? assumes he was even still in Afghanistan when the first troops hit the ground. I must have missed the part where I assumed that... anyway, we do know that it was VERY LIKELY that ObL was within the borders of afghanistan as of 9.11.2001, and he was probably there for months after that. but since we DID NOT KNOW FOR SURE that he was there, there was no point in sending additional troops eh? no way to know that 1, or 1,000,000 more troop(s) would have made a difference ... no way to know ... talk about fuzzy logic!

Doesn't one need an old slogan before adopting a new one?

Right. Now you're getting it.

Feel free to call it what you wish. That doesn't mean sending in more troops would have made any difference at all.

ah so that's how captain luvdemshrooms would conduct a manhunt?
"well, we think that the serial killer is somewhere in these woods - we've had some sightings, but we don't know for certain, so let's hold off on sending out those troopers for now. besides, it's not like we can cover every square inch, or seal off the entire forest, so what's the point in trying? it's a futile effort. there's no way to know if sending out additional men will actually result in the capture of our subject"
"No way to know. That's the bigger picture."

That's quite the assumption. And quite foolish to compare a wooded area to an entire country. I'm not aware of any law enforcement agency that would have the resources to send in enough men to search an area the size of Afghanistan. But... it's about what I'd expect you to say. Perhaps you should quit while you maintain some semblance of dignity. (I bet you won't though)

that response was incredibly weak, even by your standards.
That's quite the assumption
it's called an analogy, and a fitting one.

oh man. talk about MISSING THE POINT!
But... it's about what I'd expect you to say. Perhaps you should quit while you maintain some semblance of dignity. (I bet you won't though)
I bet you will be quitting this discussion, right about... .NOW!

Your guesses are as poorly thought out as your statements.
As for missing the point, there would have needed for there to be one that was correct. Perhaps if you can't write an accurate sentence, you should skip it.

my guesses? pardon me, but did we not have this exchange earlier?
IG: but since we DID NOT KNOW FOR SURE that he was there, there was no point in sending additional troops eh?
lds: Right. Now you're getting it.
(my analogy) "well, we think that the serial killer is somewhere in these woods - we've had some sightings, but we don't know for certain, so let's hold off on sending out those troopers for now... there's no way to know if sending out additional men will actually result in the capture of our subject"
if you want to take back YOUR poorly thought out statement, that's fine with me. my analogy was based on your statement. words have meaning, remember?
lds: Foolish. When someone can't write what they mean, it should come as no surprise when those very words are questioned or pointed out to be incorrect.
quit while you're behind

Yes, your guesses.

In order to do that I'd have to be behind. But I see you won't admit you said some foolish things.
That's OK.

Are you aware of the concept of "diminishing returns?" This concept posits that you can accomplish something with 60% surety with say 100 people, with 200 people you can have 70% surety, with 400 people you can 80% with 800 people you can have. 90% With 1600 95% with 3200. I think you might get the picture. Should we be devoting all of our resources for a wild goose chase which may well be for a corpse or for someone who, if alive, has been completely neutralized? Now that is assinine policy driven by a foolish vengeful agenda. Please stay home and don't vote. You owe those who think that much.

have you ever debated luvdemshrooms?

wow. you sold me! we shouldn't have sent any more troops! we would have increased our chances of capturing ObL by... 35% at most. it would have been such a waste of resources going on such a "wild goose chase", better that we use those troops to disarm saddam hussein of his WMD...
driven by a foolish vengeful agenda
what you call a foolish vengeful agenda, I call justice.

So since there's no way to tell if using more troops will help catch Bin Laden, we might as well not use that many.

Learyfan, we disagree on a ton of stuff, but I'm with you on this one. You did the deed, commented on it here, then reviewed the ensuing discussion and decided not to take any other signs. I believe that continuing to rag on you for that is dead wrong.
