2642409 2236555] Myth: Fallout radiation from a nuclear war would poison the air and all parts of the environment. It would kill everyone. Fact: When a nuclear weapon explodes near enough to the ground for its fireball to touch the ground, it forms a crater The problem is that particles and smoke (especially from burning oil from cities) would darken the atmosphere, causing a global decrease in sunlight and multiple ozone holes.

I think you missed the part where I said " if you don't know how to disarm it", which if you know how to do such, you shouldn't take the ineffective route of calling out the fallacy but not explaining and disarming it. It may be inelegant and somewhat ineffective, but it is rather quicker when there are other things you are doing. Also, (my apologies for nitpicking actually, I'm probably not very sorry) "which if you know how to do such" is painful to read. The issue with attempting to take hold of cities and towns like that like th...
Don't call out a fallacy if you don't know how to disarm it, otherwise that is in essence the Fallacy fallacy (Since the substance of your argument is essentially calling out a fallacy.) When an argument is based around a Straw Man, it doesn't address the actual argument. Hence, the argument is, barring lucky chance, invalid. I agree with Apollon/Иван in that it wouldn't work. You don't just simply go in and kill every enemy hiding in territory of neutrals/innocents, regardless of how good your soldiers are. Hunt and shoot is not ...
if the Kurds got involved then we might get a reaction from Turkey. (possibly fund IS?) Then Russia can invade Turkey, hand it over to Greece and restore glorious byzantine empire The United States still has, presumably, the most powerful military force in the world. Since funding rebels obviously isn't working, and bombing ISIS is not working, I would suggest that the best way to defeat them is to send in the best-armed and best-trained soldiers on the planet and wipe them out. These aren't exactly well-trained soldiers being fought. ...

No. GOD is the answer to everything. YOU need Jesus to give you love so you realize the truth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man Through sarcasm. ; ^ ) "But this is the satire section!" "Yes..." "So it was just sarcasm!" "I sort of mentioned that..." "Prove it!" "...*sigh*. If you want to do this... define 'prove'."
Ah I see. But, since both the kurds and the rebels are funded by the us, couldnt at least thsoe two merge? Probably not before they merge with ISIS. Also, guys, to avoid semantic arguments, why don't we all agree on something to call them? 'N00BS' is probably out, but 'skrubs' probably wouldn't be too problematic. Thing is, although intervention by the US tends to gunk things up, by pulling out our troops, we likely were the ones who left the power vacuum for ISIS to rise to dominance in, in the first place! The United States still ...
theguardian *snip* *snip* theguardian *snip* *snip* *snip* *snip* *snip* *snip* A.) It has nothing to do with my opinion. The site is notorious for poorly made articles due to its tendencies to lean either insanely far left or to display extremely bad comprehension (Or maybe they just want money?) *snip* Now, first off, I would like to point out that I rather dislike the Guardian as well. However, saying that something coming from a site that is not satire-specific (e.g. EmpireNews) or the farthest extents of lunacy (e.g. Time C...
Clearly, to understand the current world theater, as it may be described, we must recognize how it has reached the place it is today. The answer to this is, clearly, the Illuminati. Now, many people throw around that claim as if it were self evident (not that it is not, of course), but I shall provide irrefutable proof of this. Now, something that everyone can agree on (aside from those evil, science-hating Capitalists), surely, is that the sun rises every day; and the sun emits light, illuminating the world. HELLO? Illuminating, Illuminati? Ca...
Greetings. I am TheKian, a cow that may oftentimes be seen around stalking interesting servers. Because I think S.H.I.E.L.D. is awesome (Strategic Homeland Intervention and Enforcement Logistics Division for those of you who don't know what I'm talking about), I decided to give this server a try. If I seem familiar, then it's probably because #ModCoordNATION. If I don't seem familiar, then this meme pretty much sums me up.
