My foreign policy opinions actually were seeded by the book "All The Shah's Men," not Ron Paul.

Sick and disgusting doesn't even begin to describe conservatives these days.
Please provide sufficient documentation to support your assertion that I am rooting against US. Thx.

But I am right, you favor Ron Paul?

Don't worry no one believes you are rooting against Iran.

Over any current candidate, of the Republican or Democrat party, for President of the United Sates, in 2012. Why are you ashamed to admit it?

Because Gary Johnson is my #1.

As long as the US imports oil from the mid-east, it's impossible to stay out of feuds.

Good to know Bob after all that's happened since 9/11 you take what the government says about Iran at face value.

You don't learn very fast do you?
Well, let's wait a few days. If the media finds holes in the story and the US government is forced to say "it was a lie," then we will thank you
if there is still significant ambiguity (meaning a large number of people expressing doubt, as illustrated by media sources - 9/11 does not count, BTW) then we can continue to accept conspiracy posts
If it becomes clear that the mainstream viewpoint finds that the incident was perpetrated by Iran, I will ask moderators to delete future pro-conspiracy theory posts about the matter and suppress users who try to post them repeatedly - In that case the community should ostracize and shun users who are "tinfoils" in that regard. People who honestly believe in the conspiracy theories will have to PM one another and/or post at another forum outside of City data.

A good discussion forum controls the discussion so it does not get bogged down in pointless/dead horse/fringe arguments
