And you called me a troll. If you don't want me speculating about your motivation, than don't speculate about mine.

My verbatim quote from post 1144 is:
"You are acting like a troll, don."
I was describing your behaviour: it resembled that of a troll. I phrased it like that because many of your posts here and on other threads are in fact very cogently argued and full of useful information. But on this particular topic, your behaviour does resemble that of a troll.

I said nothing about your actual motivations.

If you have a germaine argument, or some evidence related to this book [Panzer Leader], feel free to trot it out.

The germane argument was about my motivations, which you presumed (incorrectly) to know in advance. The book is sufficiently obscure that lay people would not know about it : it indicates my interest in WW II.

Say good night, don.

I rest my case.

The germane argument was about my motivations

The germane argument for you, was about your motivations. The germane argument for me was to answer the question "where did Hitler's anti-semitism come from?" And that was in response to a half-baked suggestion that Hitler murdered jews because of Darwin. To the best of my knowledge, this thread is more about evolution and Darwin, than it is about your exclusionary desire to talk about WWII.
