150cc Live Diplomacy Club
Well given that the original thread slid into the depth I figured I'd start a new thread, and try and give a little life back to what I think was a promising idea: Essentially a high class live game club

Bush explains slow reaction to September 11 attacks
"So I made the decision not to jump up immediately and leave the classroom. I didn't want to rattle the kids. I wanted to project a sense of calm"

At the end of the day on that terrible day Bush did what ever he thought was the right course of action for the people of america. That was insuring that we would rise up and that we could survive. and Do you really think that an elementary school is a bigger target then the white house? these attacks were planned years in advance do you really think they knew he was at the school and would waste an attack on that. no way and all he did was finish a book and then hop into his fortress of a plane. He did the right thing all day long

Bush may have done what he thought was the right course of action...but the SS did nothing.

"do you really think they knew he was at the school and would waste an attack on that."

Everyone knew. It was a surprise attack...no one knew the President wasn't a target. But the SS knew he wasn't.

yes i totally agree that nobody knew anything. and i am confused were you criticizing bush or his SS? and i am curious to know what would you have had him do? I mean as soon as he finished his book he went to the safest place he had his jet
Darwyn (1601 D)

"criticizing bush or his SS?"

I'm criticizing the SS.

America was under attack
No one could have known the President wasn't a target.
But the SS knew he wasn't by allowing him to stay.

"I mean as soon as he finished his book he went to the safest place he had his jet '

No, he stayed for a while.
Darwyn (1601 D)
01 Aug 11 UTC
So can I declare victory now or does anyone else want a shot at this?
shot at what? The President is in charge and the President wanted to fucking stay. You have no evidence Bush's whereabouts were known ahead of time, you have no evidence that the SS didnt know exactly where the hijacked planes were at all times, and you have no evidence that the confusion on the ground could have contributed to any lapse (if there is one in the first place). Again you have nothing. Much like you had nothing when you claimed that six million was a manufactured number. Much like you had nothing when you continually insinuated that Jews deserved every persecution placed on them.

"You have no evidence Bush's whereabouts were known ahead of time"

I cited this already...

"you have no evidence that the SS didnt know exactly where the hijacked planes were at all times"

No one could have assumed that hijacked planes were the only means of attack.

"you have no evidence that the confusion on the ground could have contributed to any lapse"

lapse in what? The SS's job is to keep him safe. Clearly, they already knew he was safe.
You have no evidence that intercepters were circling over the president at the time making the school secute, you have NOTHING. Yo have proved NOTHING. All you have done is refused to listen to ANYONE.
Darwyn (1601 D)
01 Aug 11 UTC
The only evidence needed is that the Presidents agenda was known ahead of time.

Outside of this, Nothing could be known for certain. Nothing.
"No one could have assumed that hijacked planes were the only means of attack."

Any other means would have had to deal with the cadre of well trained SS officers surrounding the school, yes, a hijacked plane was the only possible successful attack\

"lapse in what? The SS's job is to keep him safe. Clearly, they already knew he was safe. "

Which doesn't mean that they obviously knew about 9/11, it could mean they knew he was safe with the preperations they made
Darwyn (1601 D)

"a hijacked plane was the only possible successful attack'

You don't know this. No one knows this at 9:05.

"it could mean they knew he was safe with the preperations they made "

It was impossible to know he was safe.
"Outside of this, Nothing could be known for certain. Nothing. "

So since nothing is known for certain, it is certain that GWB planned the 9/11 attacks. Your logic is impeccable as always idiot. BTW has your scholarly curiousity on sources of Jewish persecution born fruit or are you still just asking questions? Fuck head
"It was impossible to know he was safe. "

It was impossible to know he was safe on the way back to the whitehouse.

"You don't know this. No one knows this at 9:05."

Sure you do, the president is locked down inside a school with SS swarming all around, what else could get at him? hmm?
what else could get him that couldnt get him in transit?

"Sure you do, the president is locked down inside a school with SS swarming all around, what else could get at him? hmm? "

That's precisely it. :)

Move him and nothing can get to him. You cannot make a target of something you cannot locate.
Darwyn (1601 D)
01 Aug 11 UTC
"what else could get him that couldnt get him in transit? "

Who's going to stick around to find out?
Which has been disproved by the astute observation that the president historically has been more vulnerable in transit than locked down in any building
"Who's going to stick around to find out? "

Somebody collecting more information so they do not make rash decisions
Darwyn (1601 D)
01 Aug 11 UTC
"So since nothing is known for certain, it is certain that GWB planned the 9/11 attacks.'

No...since the SS didn't move to secure him, they already knew he was safe. But we both know that is impossible.
you have nothing darwyn, you don't know SS protocol. You don;t know if it calls for locking down the presient in case of emergency or if it requires moving him. You make asumptions. As always
Darwyn (1601 D)
01 Aug 11 UTC
The SS knew he was safe at his previously announced location while America is under attack.

This is impossible. You know it.
Just a paranoid anti-semite wishing he knew stuff others didnt
It surely is possible and you know it

note the pictures which show bush setting up shop at booker as the SS decides what they are going to do with him (because they were still planning)

Invictus (240 D)

Then why go to the school at all? That video of him dithering after he was told of the attacks was incredibly damaging politically. Why not just be at the White House during the attack, where he can go right on TV and give an amazing speech from the Oval Office right away? Surely an appointment at some school can be cancelled if it conflicts with the date of your plan to murder thousands of American citizens?

You're so full of shit. You, like all conspiracy theorists, latch on to one little detail which can be interpreted in a revisionist way and then say it's incontestable proof that there was some massive plot. Go ahead and believe this garbage, but don't expect anyone who isn't hasn't already drunk the Kool-aid to listen to you seriously.

I know you're an idiot.

the majority suffers because of one player(bad loser)
i play two games where one country doesnt want to stop the pause because they are losing and thats a fact
one of them i know personally and he told me that
so one bad loser ruins the game to the other 6
i think the unpause must be majority like 60 percent or so
