...clear that the overwhelming majority of this board's participants are NOT his friends, and are no longer his acquaintances either
Right on, debunker. And I might add that it is to the credit of this overwhelming board that we pretended to be keiva's friend and treated him cordially and kindly, when behind his back we really hated his guts.
How, I wonder, did this guy so quickly make Pooh-Bah? Was he double promoted? If so by whom? I demand a look-see by those of authority.
My oath,
A concerned Awad Member.

Without commenting on the merits of either side -- and at the risk of alienating one faction or another -- I have to point out that this discussion is deteriorating, as did some other threads before it, and that the Board's purposes will be better served when it returns to where it ought to be.
Why are we sinking to the very incivilities that are being deplored in the earlier posts in this very thread? It isn't necessary to respond with escalating hostility to every probe or barb...

I do not pretend to know who's in the right in the Middle East, in Northern Ireland, or indeed on AWADtalk. What I am sure of is that in all these conflicts both sides are in the wrong through sheer bloody intransigence and an unwillingness to cry a halt and let peace be declared before they've had the last word,thrown the last bomb, fired the last shot or whatever. What kind of a species are we, for goodness' sake, that we revel so much in holding grudges against each other and seeking revenge?
On a more optimistic note, peace does seem to be breaking out in Maluku and Poso, where Christians and Muslims have been slaughtering each other for the past two or three years.

I don't think there is anything improper about me feeling deep sorrow at the event I mentioned.Nor do I. --------------------- Thank you, Bingley! ...peace does seem to be breaking out in Maluku and Poso...Is it so sudden to warrant the term(s) 'breaking out'? I shall look for remnants of this information here, in this country where, unfortunately, very few focus (or care much) about peace.  Please provide a link if possible. Peace
