-Caveat Lector-

I see the difference. You presented an edited form of an article. The
editing took the form of quoting the part that backs up your belief, while
editing out all the parts that go against your belief system.


My point remains the same - every time you choose to show only part of
something, you are displaying an opinion.

Who cares?

My point was not about the article, but about you. The article speaks for
itself. Or it would if it was allowed to remain whole - as it was presented
it only speaks for you.

AS to your personal attacks and insults - they roll off me as I never enter
a battle of wits with the unarmed.

I would love for you point out one place where I rationalized.

PS - I was teaching editing for video/film documentary.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please!  These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
