This is my last post in this thread. I hope those who read my initial posts in this thread would confirm that the book "Disinformation" by Richard Miniter contains disinformation about WMDs. It is ironic that this thread itself has degenerated into a fine example of disinformation. If you go through all the posts in this thread it will be clear to you that the claims of Mario and Peter that I introduced the word "deranged" to describe Saddam Hussein are false. Actually, it is Mario who put that word in my mouth in the first of a series of posts that vindicated my point of view, and Peter followed up by using that word, first in a taunting reference in what looked like his sophomoric attempt at abusing those of us who are against the horribly botched illegal occupation of Iraq, and now in a post claiming that he was referring to real Saddam supporters, and not us, while accusing me of some kind of truncation. It is hard for me to tell whether Peter is telling the truth or not, especially after reading his entire quote, and because of the fact that he gleefully made the following comment to Mario in his previous post: "As a case in point witness the defensiveness of the leftists on this list each time you accuse them of supporting Saddam." ........Peter (http://www.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet/2005-November/035400.html) But if he is telling the truth, I would like to apologize to him for thinking that he was happily abusing us, or that he agrees with Mario that we deserve to be called supporters of Saddam Hussein. Here are Marios and Peters first attempts to put the word "deranged" in my mouth: "Santosh's desire to have such a supposedly deranged "criminal mind" continue as the oppressive leader of a country that was harboring and encouraging worldwide terrorism in a post 9/11 world is itself something that I find hard to comprehend."........Mario (http://www.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet/2005-November/035272.html) "You haven't told us why you were opposed to the actions that resulted in the removal of that mass-murderer and tyrant (or 'deranged criminal', as you ever so mildly phrase it) Saddam Hussein."...........Peter (http://www.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet/2005-November/035458.html) I never asserted that Saddam Hussein had a "deranged" criminal mind. I merely inquired and wondered as to why Mario does not believe that Saddam Hussein has a "deranged criminal mind", because he raised that specific point, and expressed disbelief. I also asked Mario to read a book on the psychology of political leaders. Please note that in my initial reference to Saddam Hussein I stated that he possesses "the criminal mind of a murderous dictator". (http://www.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet/2005-November/035241.html) I do not expect Mario or Peter to apologize to me for their misrepresentations of my assertions and my position in this public forum. Cheers, Santosh P.S. Personal attacks and insults against me as a result of this final exposure of disinformation in this thread will be regarded as further vindication of my point of view. They will therefore be triumphantly ignored.
