Jack:
I am sure Aloofi can speak for himself, he has always come across as quite an eloquent young (?) man. If he wants to discus this, I will do it with him (either in public or by PM).

If you can’t see the difference between those pictures/Posts, then it’s your loss, not mine.

Well, to clarify, it never was intended to be an "Aloofi-bashing thread". I was only responding to a remark he made about his rating becoming lower after he voiced comments about the "war". I just wanted him to understand that, given the exchange I had seen between him and "Greg", there could be more reasons his rating was lowered.

And that is all.

Ok, I'm back now. Sorry I couldn't continue the discussion yesterday.
About that gun, please I would like to see a link to that post if possible, cause I don't recall posting a gun in an offensive way, though I don't doubt I might have posted a gun, since I don't oppose war by itself, but I opposse wars that i believe are being fought for the benefit of the greed of a few.
I remember quite clear though, that I posted some graphic pictures of dead soldiers that Geo edited out changing them for a link.
I'm not denying that I may have posted a gun, what I'm saying is that its more likely I posted that gun to show something politically incorrect that have been played down by the media or something alone those lines.

By this I mean that I see 2 kinds of wars.
1- Just wars (self-defense)
2- Injust wars (Unprovoked/greed motivated/imperialist agression)

I'm clarifiying so I don't get called a warmonger, which I am not. I do agree that wars are evil by itself, but when you are attacked there is little choice.
