  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

    Did Iran fake the School deaths?

    One of the key differences between the USA/Israel and Iran is the targeting of innocents. Iran has been indiscriminate in its targeting and its proxies have used a human shield policy in Gaza and elsewhere at immense cost of life. So the accusation that Israel or the USA carried out a bombing...
