It’s “Not An Invasion,” If We Think They Belong Here

“How about one piece of documentation showing foreign combat troops are here for some nefarious purpose?”

That “nefarious purpose” is too subjective.
ANY FOREIGN TROOPS HERE IS A PROBLEM!
Even if they are birdwatching they don’t belong here!

Well, if that’s your attitude, I’m afraid you’ll just be perpetually outraged.

You mean I’m “dead set” on reading the article as it was written? That bothers you, does it?

PS: This isn’t the only article I’ve read about this.

No, it doesn’t bother me, it disappoints me. It’s disappointing that when conservatives, who are supposed to be reasonable and skeptical, see an obviously sensational article, they don’t try to “read between the lines”, but just take it at face value and start getting hysterical.

I’ve read other articles too, and they’re all just sensationalism, as far as I’ve seen.

Hysterical? You think my comments are hysterical? Hyperbole much?

I either do as you order me to do or you taunt me? I am not done reading other material and choose my selections wisely, not at the provocation of a temperamental teen who needs me to approve of his views or else he’s tragically disappointed.

Oh you’ve read other articles and your view is still the only one which is legitimate? EVERYONE else is just ‘hysterical’ for discussing the topic, expressing interest and or concern. Hey here’s an idea - look up the word “hysterical”.

Your ‘disappointment’ is of no concern to me - people who try to force me to agree with them or taunt me for disobedience are often “disappointed.” Go sob in a corner about your life’s disappointments.

The EU Times?

We don’t need no steenking tin-foil hats!

Thank you - that was one of the documents I’ve been wanting to read again but couldn’t find the link.

Can’t find the author of the website. It’s not official. Still checking it out. Writer suggests belief in 9/11 conspiracy theory.

LOL! Did you even read that article before linking to it? I mean, “EU Times” sounds legitimate, but if you just skim the article, you’ll find this:

“As to what “upcoming disaster” the US is preparing for, this report continues, appears to be “strongly related” to last weeks assassination of American reporter Michael Hastings who was killed while attempting to reach the safety of the Israeli Consulate in Los Angeles, and as we had reported on in our 20 June report Top US Journalist Attempting To Reach Israeli Consulate Assassinated.”

Another paranoid fringe site, just with a more respectable name.

It’s not hyperbole at all. Someone pointed out to you that the people involved were medics, firefighters, and disaster responders. Instead of taking that new information and incorporating it logically to form a more sensible opinion, you continued, fueled by emotion, to try to find a way to still claim this is some invasion by foreign combat troops. That’s hysteria, my FRiend: “Deriving from or affected by uncontrolled emotion”.

“I either do as you order me to do or you taunt me?”

Where did I order you to do anything? Quotes or it didn’t happen. Now taunting, sure I’ll give you that one. I’ve found ridicule is about the only effective response to people who don’t respond to facts or reason. I could just ignore you, but I care about FReepers enough to try something at least.

“Oh you’ve read other articles and your view is still the only one which is legitimate?”

Where did I say that? Again, quotes or it didn’t happen. There are plenty of legitimate opinions about a story like this, but any legitimate opinion needs to be based on reliable information and reason, not questionable sources and emotion.

Are you still cryin’? You think that after I read your prior posts, I still find your posts worth reading? Think again. Or just think.

Not crying, just responding. Could care less at this point whether you read them or not, but if you reply to me and ask questions in your post, it’s just common courtesy to answer.

EUTimes looks like a pretty wild-eyed, conspiracy oriented publication to me.

The most logical inference from the “information” they asserted is that the US Government is expecting a meteor strike in the Pennsylvania/Maryland/Delaware/Virginia/West Virginia region sometime in the near future, whereupon the Russians would send 15,000 EmerCom personnel to rescue the Obama administration from the ET invaders. (sarcasm off)
