Tau: Your Words Are Inscrutably Self-Referencing

In Response To: Re: The Scourging of Iraq (tau)
Tau, your writings are comprised of collections of references to things you are not saying - and the _meanings_ of the references are _not_ being successfully drawn into your present-moment statement. The result is "mysterious nonsense" for some of us, perhaps for most of us.
: Why Iraq: Well, "we" have sold all they need to get
: revenge on those who had them in derision in Daniel's
: time,
You need to replace many of your pronouns with their actual antecedents, the "proper nouns" that these pronouns represent.
In the above quote, who are "we"? Who are they? Who are those who had them in derision? Who are the 'them' that 'they' had in derision? What do you mean by "had them in derision"? (I think 'derision' may not be the correct word for your intended meaning, but even that is mysterious to me, so far.)
[snip]
: "Well, why didn't you say that in the beginning if you
: knew it all the time."
(Say what? Knew what?)
: "Well, I thought you knew it, being so upset by all that
: has agrivated you up till now."
(What are the antecedents of these many pronouns?)
: "Well we didn't evidently, & that is why we
: questioned you so much about what agrivated us so
: much."
: Well now I guess that's all been straightened out
: now,-Right.?"
Not at all. If you can, try writing more declaratively, not so referentially. Your words are like a cloud; we need for them to be more like a trail, with signposts along the way. We understand that, in your mind, the things you are referring to are clear and visible. We need for you to make them also clear and visible in the words you are writing for us to read.
Helps...?
