Please don’t lie. I never said I didn’t care, I said I didn’t see that it made a difference if it was true. 
 

You admitted not knowing if it was true, and you (apparently) can’t explain why it would make a difference. 
 

 

 

We’re did I lie?... your position is clear in that you don’t know, and aren’t interested in finding the truth, as you posed an open ended question, which could easily be answered with a small amount of critical thought

 

And... i did not so much admit to not knowing if something was true or not. bUt instead,  I would suggest that I was attempting to frame a question, in an attempt to provoke critically thinking (the need for which I noted above) on your part... but I see that was pointless.

 

meanwhile... I did explain the difference (I try again with more words).... the trump acted unilaterally, dismissing allied concerns, without a mandate and in definace of law which requires an imminent threat to approve action with congressional approval

 

On the other hand.... Obama  acted on a UN mandate, taking allied concerns into account and acting in co ordination with those allies, in a joint action, because of imminent threats on the ground, as determined by the many parties (allies) concerned.

 

one was dictatorial, the other by international consent.... are you starting to pick up what I’m looking laying down?
