under the influence of Mr Stabby’s friend Putin. The level of intelligence shown in your quality of debate is breathtaking. This is the sort of thing I would expect from a child.

Reading between the lines, it seems Putin does not like people who he doesn't control taking some of the graft and corruption that is endemic in the post USSR countries. There must be better ways of getting a cut of the action than bombing the crap out of the country. When it is settled, hoever that is, there will be endless opportunity for a few to make fortunes out of the rebuilding. Maybe this is what Trump has his eye on?

Am I a bad person for not feeling sorry for the Russians who died in the stadium attack? They allowed their country to become a dictatorship (a process that took many years) and didn’t say much when their government tried to invade an adjacent country that presented no threat to them? Lots of Ukrainians died in that process, and continue to do so. Perhaps this is Karma? I suppose you could say exactly the same thing about the kids who died in the Manchester Arena bombing. Just substitute Iraqis/ Afghans etc for Ukrainians and you're there. I don't know whether you are a "bad person" but you're certainly a thick one.

But I wouldn’t say that. The Uk has not started any wars nor invaded any countries recently. So your attempt to draw a parallel fails. As to me being thick, well one of use has an engineering degree and won several prizes for doing clever things. For one of us the pinnacle of their career is driving around the place in a vehicle. So if I am thick, you are dense to the point of closely resemble a black hole. So there.

Life 'achievements' have no relationship whatsoever to one's intelligence.
I know you did not start that exchange but I always find references to being 'thick' rather uncouth in a number of different ways.
You are also wrong to compare islamist 'terrorist*' attacks on western countries to similar acts in Russia.
Firstly the Russian thing will most likely be state organised because the leader knows his shit and secondly
*terrorists do not exist.

Well not in this thread anyway. Whereas Thick Vince did. Oops!

I used to make the mistake of judging people's intelligence by their qualifications, job held, successes in life etc. I now realise that I was sadly mistaken. Those who gain these successes in life do so, primarily, through their drive and desire to achieve. Not all intelligent people have drive and desire to achieve. Or if they do, it could be that the fruits of their achievements are more hidden.

Not being judgmental at all are we nick? Yes, but not how you think. Stabby can’t formulate an argument so immediately resorts to judging my intelligence. But instead of picking up on that, you pick up on my reaction to it. I therefore judge you to be a thick twat who will say anything to score pathetic points against people you perceive as your enemies. But we knew that already of course.

Campaign for clever people to deliberately do nothing.
