Calling you an amoral invertebrate isn't a statement for the sake of insult; it is just a statement of fact, which you yourself readily admit to by your statements. You simply lack the ability to tell the difference between right and wrong. That you think you are being "impartial" by refusing to admit that it is wrong for Russians to be robbing banks just demonstrates the fact.
The reason my replies are more about you than about the original article is that your refusal to conform to even the most basic of human morality makes any further discussion of the issue moot until you come to your senses and recognize that there is no moral equivalence between an invader and the people being invaded.
That is your interpretation of events. You are twisting and inventing simply in order to achieve your version of a moral high ground.
‘please remember to use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks’
You signed up to the above when you registered. Regardless if you disagree with a poster you simply can’t make up your own rules and start with personal insults.
I refer you back to my previous post. Take some time to read it, think, and apply those actions to your posts. You are still openly emphasising the fact that you are breaking the rules that you signed up for.
This is a forum for debate. You either agree or disagree. It is not a forum for you to simply change the rules and resort to personal attacks. Obviously this has not been taken on board by yourself. It is a very simple rule.
Possibly it might make you think before resorting to personal abuse in the future - Possibly not? Nobody in this forum should be subjected to personal abuse and my actions in reporting it might stop your attacks on other posters in the future.
Yet again you have been reported for personal attacks.
Read the Rules!
