just for fun, lets summarise the BS FD made up in his last post alone:

1. That at some point I 'retracted' my claim that none of the known misinformation came from any muslim

2. At some point I firstly retracted - then subsequently reclaimed as true - some of the misinformation from the original news report

3. I agreed at some point that FD's list of "lies" were in fact lies.

Rather than learning from his previous mistakes, FD seems to think that careless, thoughtless mistakes should be topped by even more careless and thoughtless mistakes. Otherwise, why would he come up with not one, or two but three more howlers right after he had been exposed for falsely accusing me of 1. trying to distance myself from the 'line' claim and 2. posting a photo of only muslim women?

I just feel this behaviour is worth noting in a thread where the culprit is trying so hard to make a case against muslims as chronic purveyors of misinformation. For anyone else, it would be hilarious - but this is FD we're talking about - this sort of crap is his trademark  Tongue

Yes - what I should have said is there is no *REASON* to believe that any of the fabrications came from any muslim - because there is no evidence. I think I made it pretty clear thats what I meant. Would you agree with this at least?


Just so we do not have to go over this yet again, can you please agree that it is wrong to insist that none of the Muslims were responsible for the lies and you were in fact wrong to suggest so?

See above.

Was it not lying to suggest there were over 1000 Muslim present?

Quote:
I don't know, but it wouldn't be all that hard to believe that he knew seeing he was the one there and the one who organised it. One thing it definitely isn't - is proof that he is lying.


Is this the same person who insisted there is no way of knowing? You have no trouble believing that he knows? If you insist there is no way of knowing from the photos, can you suggest some other way he might have known? Can you judge who is a Muslim by their appearance in person, but not via a photo? Perhaps he made everyone get a Muslim or non-Muslim stamp on the way in?

oh just look at FD - he's on *FIRE* today!

According to FD, saying:

yes - what I should have said is there is no *REASON* to believe that any of the fabrications came from any muslim - because there is no evidence. I think I made it pretty clear thats what I meant. Would you agree with this at least?

- is actually me "retracting" my claim that none of the misinformation came from any muslim. Yup - the words 'there is no reason to believe that any of the fabrications came from any muslim' - in fact means 'I was mistaken - those fabrications *TOTALLY* came from muslims'. FD logic par excellence.

Not when you use the false logic that this therefore means it is part of a sinister muslim conspiracy ploy to conceal the true threat of Islam. You are still running with that right FD? So how does that work exactly? You simply use the absense of evidence to say "well you can't prove it wasn't from muslims - therefore it WAS from muslims - tada!

Help me understand FD - or are you now going to acknowledge - actually no, that logic is fallacious, and it is full of crap - there is no reason to assume a sinister muslim consp.. err ruse to conceal the true threat of Islam, because there is no evidence for one.

It is lying to say it came from any muslim. I literally can't believe we're nearly 30 pages in and you're still citing it as a muslim lie.

He was there, he organised the freaking thing - it stands to reason he would have *SOME* idea how many of his fellow muslims would turn up to the jig that he himself organised. For one thing, they had a register on facebook before. He was the one by the way who rejected the "1000+ muslims" claim, stating there were still hundreds. Not exactly precise - yet there is no reason to disbelieve him.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves Gandalf. That's why we keep coming back to the same simple points of your confusion.

Just so we do not have to go over this yet again, can you please agree that it is wrong to insist that none of the Muslims were responsible for the lies and you were in fact wrong to suggest so? You have already conceded this once, so it should not be too difficult.

Where have I done that Gandalf?

Quote:

Of course. As I recall he predicted that hundreds of Muslims would turn up. After the event, he claimed that he had no way of telling how many actually turned up, but that hundreds turned up. This is a convenient way for him to brush over the turnout being far less than he predicted, by practicing the same selective rejection of evidence that you do - that you can recognise Muslims visually when it suits you, but when they are obviously not there you have no way of knowing. In fact I believe you got your "no way of knowing" spiel from him. Despite him specifically saying he had no basis on which to make this claim, your entire argument (or at least, the bit you do not chop and change) is that you have no reason to disbelieve him.

Quote:

.

LOL

Quote:

Did he actually say this was incorrect? Over 1000 Muslims is entirely consistent with his claim that he has no way of knowing how many turned up. He may have figured this out from the fact that the entire crowd was under 1000 people, but so far neither he nor you have demonstrated a lot of common sense on this.

Is this the same guy who insisted that there was a first line of 20 Muslims and that for "logistical and security reasons" several hundreds Muslims formed a second symbolic line behind the barrier?

No, and no I didn't. Very sneaky FD - but credit for trying it on. Here's what I conceded: "that it is wrong to insist that this absence of evidence is evidence that none of those Muslims were responsible". Now you are trying to claim this is the same as insisting that "none of the muslims were responsible for the lies". I continue to insist that none of the muslims were responsible - because I believe in the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. That is a mile of difference to insisting that the absense of evidence is evidence that none of the muslims were responsible. Maybe its too subtle a difference for you - but I don't think so. Most likely you're just once again trying to bullshit your way out of an absurdly untennable position of your own making.

Now can we get back to those awful muslims and their sinister lies that somehow created the basis of this story? Are you going to answer the question yet - are you in fact using the false logic that an inability to prove muslims didn't create the lies - is somehow proof of muslim lies? I'm dying to get to the bottom of this FD - you described this story as one that was "based on lies" and a demonstration of "muslims doing what they do" to conceal the threat of Islam. Still, after nearly 30 pages, literally all we have is "you can't prove the muslims didn't do this" and "Gandalf is the muslims (plural - I am apparently some sort of Gestalt super-being) lying - but I'll deny the list of lies I made to defend this claim - were ever meant as lies."

And once again your "recollections" are sourced directly from your rectum.

Oh dear - the entire basis for FD's case against this muslim is a long list of bs that he never said.

FD why are you even asking? You just finished composing an entire paragraph of pure fantasy regarding what this guy said and did - why on earth would you stop now and ask for some actual facts?

Yup. And here we see FD's two-pronged method of proving muslim lies - firstly reject reported facts and make sh*t up to incriminate them, and secondly take other reported facts - accept them as gospel truth, and say "this doesn't make sense to me" (and of course refusing to read any of the actual reports to get an understanding of the facts) - and declare that its conclusive proof of sinister muslim lies - made to conceal the true threat of Islam.

Of course, for anyone else who employs the use of more than a single brain cell (and actually reads the reports on it), the idea that logistical and security contingency arrangements would be required in a highly sensitive and high profile event such as this - is not at all outrageous.

Meanwhile, FD will continue mocking the very idea of limiting the number of people forming the first line - while at the same time curiously acknowledging the presense of a police barrier to create that limitation Cheesy

Ah.

Quote:

True. Now you have changed your mind and are arguing that the absence of a guilty verdict in some imaginary court shows that they are not responsible. That is so much more convincing that "no reason to believe otherwise" and "no evidence to support my conclusion".

That absence of evidence is not evidence of absence?

It is a reason to disbelieve Gandalf. If this is the same guy who made up the story about the formation of the second line, and also the same guy who insisted there was no way of knowing how many Muslims turned up, there you have to very good reasons to disbelieve his claims about how many Muslims turned up.

By "logistical" difficulties, he was probably referring to the difficulty in forming a ring or line of hundreds of Muslims when you only have 20 or so.

I think there IS just such a strategy, ploy, whatever.


Muslims targeting Christians or Jews means, "don't focus on the motivations of the Muslims." Muslims defending Christians or Jews means "desperately focus on the motivations of the Muslims."

Can anyone explain why the West gives fanciful excuses for what they are doing, despite their perfectly clear explanations for what they are doing? When the victims are Jews, we do not want them to be Jews -- just "random folks." When the victims are Christians, we do not want them to be Christians -- just "Egyptians."

In the wake of the attacks in Copenhagen in February, there was a scaling up of security at most Jewish sites across Europe. Little of this was focussed on by the media. But when one small-scale initiative took place in Norway that involved a few Muslims, among others, forming a human chain to stand symbolically around a synagogue for a couple of hours, that story garnered headlines and news coverage around the world. This is not to say that such initiatives are not good and are not appreciated. But they are tiny, tiny flecks of light given an amazing amount of coverage, and deemed to have a vast and seismic influence.

http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/5496/christians-dying

Killing 150 students in Pakistan, Iraq, Kenya - nuffin to do wiv nuffin.  20 Muslims showing up in Oslo is headlined as Hundreds of Muslims forming a protective ring and is in all the newspapers as a gesture of MUSLIM goodwill.

It is a lie that Islam has nothing to do with the relentless violence and it is a lie that most Muslims are actively working to stop the violence.  The latter lie is a coverup for the former lie.

No, it was a Jew from the Synagogue actually. But you would have known that if you actually bothered to read the TOI article I kept reminding you about. Then you wouldn't have to constantly extrapolate from your rectum this endless list of fantasies that weren't in the story - and make yourself look foolish in the process.

Quite. Or in other words, if the endless stream of BS you pull from your rectum was actually true - yes he absolutely would be a untrustworthy devious little muslim. Excellent point there FD.

Fancy that. I took you conceding that you had no evidence to back up your claim to be you retracting the claim. I stand corrected. You merely admitted that your claim is purely assumption. Of course you still stand by it. The jury isn't in yet.

So how do you think this organiser determined the number of Muslims present? Presumably he is allowed to identify Muslims visually, unlike you and the Jew whose argument you have been parroting. Or did he just go by the number of people who signed on to his facebook event? Do you think he had any trouble due to the sudden eclipse that prevented any photos being taken that might lend weight to the assertion of hundreds of Muslims present? Perhaps he could identify them by their unusual progressiveness? And why do you think he picked out all the tinted ones for a photo op and left all the white ones to form a second line? Perhaps he was worried there might be an attack and was concerned for the security of the white Muslims. Or do you prefer not to think about these things in case you discover a reason not to believe it?

Grin hilarious.

This is FD's case for why this whole story is based on muslim lies specifically designed to conceal the true threat of Islam.

FD - after getting so much wrong about this story, do you not start to question - even just a little bit - your convictions about this story? Tell me honestly.

There is no meaningful difference. When you build this episode as one that is entirely based on sinister muslim lies - which you are - then it obviously misses the point to  launch into a lecture about how important the distinction is between stating muslim innocence as fact as opposed to stating that they have the presumption of innocence. It makes no freaking difference. Quite simply, for the purposes of this discussion, muslims *ARE* innocent of telling lies - because there is no reason to believe they are, outside of course your prejudice and long list of BS that you pulled from your rectum. Or what FD - are you seriously suggesting that pointing out an inability to prove that the story is *NOT* based muslim lies actually supports your argument that the story definitely *IS* based on muslim lies?

Next discussion - the pyramids definitely were built by purple monkeys from Mars - because we can't prove they didn't build them.
