You speak of the rules of debate at the same time you continue to use the tactic of ridicule by mangling another user's chosen screen name? That's not honest debate, it's baiting.

All of your quotes are being misread by yourself. When I said he has not crossed the Denial line I was being precise. He has spoken of not being allowed to do so, and he has skirted the line quite finely. What he has not done is openly said the words. Until he does so he has not, as far as I'm concerned, crossed that line.

Fine. If he supplies his evidence it will be dealt with according to whatever rules cripple my response. Because the facts are so lopsided no amount of handicap toward the truth will prevent his side from losing anyway. The slightest light destroys the darkness.

That is what we want. We also want to stay within the bounds of the topic.

That same judgement also applies to you. You are not a policeman or a moderator here either.

Okay, here's the bottom line. I have been taken to task for locking the thread, and criticized for unlocking it. I have been accused of waffling with my "Unofficial" warnings, of being too lenient and of being too harsh.
I have asked several times now that everyone stick with the topic of Who Started The Second World War. Now I'm insisting. Anyone attempting to derail this thread from that topic from this point on will be dealt with accordingly. That's not meant to be a challenge, and no disrespect to anyone, but I don't see any other way to enforce it.
Please, be kind to me and my ulcers and try to stay with the subject.
