* Background on [[Osama bin Laden]]: "He was a CI (asset) for the CIA to help the Cold War battle of Russia on the Afghanistan front. Him and his people were given and trained to use "Stinger" missiles to help battle the Russian gunships. It changed their war dramatically. The 'enemy of our enemy is our friend' scenario was played out and he turned against the U.S. once we had no use for him. He/they got pissed and wanted more. Lesson learned? Don't f*ck with U.S. Unfortunately they still have them though." [https://plus.google.com/u/0/114144042339947449474/posts/eDkVyDvNWPJ]

* [[unsympathetic valley]]:
 
−
** Assumption A is that anyone who is able to work can find a job -- people seem to cling to that one in the face of all evidence to the contrary. I'm not sure how to present it more persuasively.
 
−
** Assumption B is that only people who are able to work need to have an income -- or, at least, that there's some "unsympathetic valley" in between being _incapacitated*_ and being _employable_ -- where it's somehow your own fault that you can't get a job.
 
−
** (*although lately there's been increasing hostility against people who are clearly incapacitated in some way, _even if_ they happen to be earning a living... but I digress).
 
−
** Maybe people in the "unsympathetic valley" -- those who are willfully ignorant, unpleasant to be around, or just plain incompetent by nature -- shouldn't have the _same_ quality of life as those who are well-liked, competent, and so on -- but (a) if we cut them off from legitimate means of survival, they are likely to seek _illegitimate_ means (crime, con artistry, etc.); and (b) do we really want these people doing work which they'll probably screw up somehow?

**** "As of December 2012, Monsanto had filed 142 alleged seed patent infringement lawsuits involving 410 farmers and 56 small farm businesses in 27 states, which recently led one judge to brand the company "incredibly litigious"."
 
−
**** "Instead of saving seed for replanting, farmers are now constrained to purchasing a combination "cropping system" comprised of high-cost GE seed and the herbicide to which the seed is resistant." ... "Upon purchase, farmers are required to sign lengthy contracts known as "technology use agreements." The contracts prohibit farmers from saving seeds and, among many other intrusive prohibitions, allow companies to access the farmers' records held by third parties, such as the US government." (p. 10 aka "6")
 
−
**** Monsanto also sued a seed-cleaner for "aiding and abetting" IP "theft" by cleaning seeds for replanting, among which were (unbeknownst to him) some GM seeds which were not legally re-plantable. (ibid.)

Links point to web pages. The web pages contain arguments. (An argument is one or more statements showing a logical connection between a given set of evidence and a given conclusion.)

+
* http://falkvinge.net/2013/04/05/icelandic-piratar-on-final-approach-to-election-victory/

You may accept the arguments as valid, or you may criticize them for using either bad logic or incorrect starting facts.

−
If you make either of these criticisms, then we either have to (a) accept that the page's argument is invalid, or (b) show how _your_ criticism (which is also an argument) is invalid, using the same criteria (bad logic or incorrect facts).

It's considered good form to summarize the argument -- or, more to the point, the specific _applicable_ argument(s) one wants to highlight -- from a linked web page when one posts it.

−
It doesn't negate your argument if you _don't_ do this, but in my view if person A posts a link, person B asks for a synopsis (summary of the argument), and person A refuses to provide one, then that does seriously weaken person A's position.

An argument is a logical statement starting from one or more premises and reaching a conclusion.

−
 
+
* http://www.alternet.org/congress-obsessed-peaceful-american-muslims-neglects-real-threat-white-supremacist-terrorists

As such, any argument may be criticized on the basis of either (a) starting from false premises or (b) using faulty logic.

−
 
+
* http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/05/exxon-safety-medal-oil-spill_n_3021132.html
−
If two articles contradict each other and yet both pass the first-pass test, then it may be necessary to see where they differ and seek further evidence to resolve the discrepancy.
+
* http://mediamatters.org/research/2013/04/05/report-partisanship-and-diversity-on-the-sunday/193482 - there is no "liberal" media

The same rule applies if an otherwise-rational article disagrees with your own beliefs.?
