Do you not know what quotation marks mean??? I put them there to indicate I was *quoting* someone else, and that I wasn't the original author.

Quote:In his new book, The Great Leveler: Violence and the History of Inequality from the Stone Age to the Twenty-First Century, the Austrian historian Walter Scheidel puts forth a depressing and thought-provoking thesis: The only thing that can really dent rampant and long-lasting economic inequality is violence.

Instead you are arguing against the proper etiquette of quoting someone dummy. This is why people get an education. What kiki did is wrong. You don't quote someone and not inform the reader who it is you are quoting. Some here do it all the time. I've seen SIG put things in quotes here and then argue against what she quoted. Funny thing is, she made up these quoted statements herself. She did this so she could pretend to make someone look stupid and herself superior. People here do all kinds of things to confuse or make their point. They do it for many different reasons. They also intentionally misquote people here all the time. They argue points based on false and twisted concepts of anothers' post as well. Only your friends do that Jack. I'm talking about kiki, SIG and their sock puppets. You'll argue anything without thinking it through won't you? It's what makes you someone to be ignored.

This is really hard to admit, but T has a point, several of them. The rampant lack of attribution and unclear quotes gets quite confusing. Not to mention some posters replying BEFORE the quote they are REPLYING to. Like reversing chronological sequence.

At least you can separate out who said what when they reply above the quoted context, but I do get your point. I'm guilty of that myself at times. It's just that many times the quoted posts are just to long. If the response is at the top you can go to the quoted part being referred to instead of constantly having to read the entire post. When you look at kiki's posts many many times they are a confusing mess. And much of the time SIGs' are made up or misquoted. If they won't clarify who they've quoted and quote them properly and accurately then the post should be dismissed as bogus. Now, back to the countdown clock and news of the day shall we.

Indeed, many of the main neocon players – including Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Stephen Cambone, Elliot Abrams, and Adam Shulsky – were students of Strauss at the University of Chicago, where he taught for many years. The people pushing for war against Iran are the same neocons who pushed for war against Iraq. See this and this. (They planned both wars at least 20 years ago.) For example, Shulsky was the director of the Office of Special Plans – the Pentagon unit responsible for selling false intelligence regarding Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction. He is now a member of the equivalent organization targeting Iran: the Iranian Directorate. Strauss taught that religion should be used as a way to manipulate people to achieve the aims of the leaders. But that the leaders themselves need not believe in religion.
