The USA doesn't know what "War" is anymore

Limporium likes to change the subject when he starts getting his ass stomped. It's almost the best part of these little masochism benders he goes on.
The difference between an absolute and a conditional is not a nitpick.
And you know who complains about "nitpicks" in the first place? People who regularly get their asses bitten by overlooked details; in other words, sloppy, overconfident, sometimes flat-out ignorant debaters like you and, amusingly enough, Wong.

Of course it is a nitpick. Don't tell me you never heard of an off-the-cuff comment to get a conversation started.
Do you know what kinds of people nitpick? Those who know their arguments are shit and need to keep the argument on semantics so they can later say, "I WIN TeH ENtirE ArgUment! LoL!"
The Wong is strong in this one.

You're still backpedaling too slow.

Once again, having to entirely rewrite your claim shows pretty clearly that the criticism you're responding to was quite a bit heavier than a nitpick. You don't want to have to do that in the future, I suggest you write more clearly. Of course, that's predicated upon you thinking more clearly, which naturally assumes that at some point you're likely to think.

From backpedaling to flat lying through your sagging asshole in the same thread. You're on a downward spiral, boy.

The only one close to your implied meaning.
However, "There are no 'innocent' in war." makes a clear statement about the non-presence of a specific type of item: innocent people. Contrast this with, "I believe," "I think," or "In my opinion," which would have qualified your statement as an opinion. You failed to do that. You made a claim. As my friend Jimmy Pineapple would say: Case... fucking... closed.

WOW! Wong would be proud! The idea that you clearly go digging that deep in order to force opposition to accept your perceptions of what you think someone means.

moment of silence please...

Intellectually honest people would ask for a clarification upfront besides jumping down this spiraling shit hole of a nitpick to save them from making a complete ass of themselves.
Try it next time so you can separate yourself from Wong and his sychophants.

No claim was ever made. Try, try as you might to change the harsh reality to save whatever is left of the 'point' you were trying to make.

I am done pwning you for the night. I am going to brush up on steady state an step responses of active circuits. You go and do...whatever is that you do for a living.
LOL.

You're a numbnuts. The fact that you think you're the one who committed the PWNage is the pretty bow on the box.

Hmm. Imperium's side of the argument appears weak, but he did put '-'s around "innocent."

If you remove the unnecessary, ever-changing politics as well as "political correctness"/public opinion of "collateral damage" - then you would have a more pure vision of setting objectives in modern warefare. The enemy are those who fight against your primary objectives, regardless. Wars played out in the world media will never be successful. Israel used to be good at this because they didn't give a rats ass about world opinion or who got hurt. Today the U.S. finds itself on the wrong side of Saudi Arabia - supporting a pro-Iranian islamic fundamentalist shiite government in Iraq. In Afghanistan, we know Al Qaida's address, but don't want to offend Pakistan - who harbors them and does nothing. It is a sham & discourtesy to those asked to fight when politics and public opinion are the primary agents guiding the objectives of war.
