...the art of debate.

Clearly O'keef had the upper hand with the validity of his points, but he got caught up in blustering emotion.

There are times when less is more.

The old dude left himself wide open, and all O'keefe had to do was to chill, and confidently present his points.

Instead, O'Keef made the old war mongering fool look rational, because of how O'keefs reacted.

It should have been piece of cake to take the war mongering fools context out to pasture, when he kept asking O'keef:

"Do you want to attack ISIS?"

A more rational reply would have been:

"Well, duh? Of course ISIS needs to be gone. But the problem with your question, is that you are now speaking for, and representing those who organized, funded, and trained ISIS".

"Do you actually believe ISIS just appeared out of thin air, like some fiat currency"?

"ISIS was purposely cultivated as a proxy terrorist force, by the people you are representing right now".

"So who doesn't want ISIS gone"?

"Well, that would be the ones who created ISIS".

"Lets see...who doesn't want ISIS gone...."

"That would be CIA, M16, Mossad, NATO, UK, Israel, the U.S., France, Saudi, and Turkey".

"So yes, of course I would like to see ISIS destroyed, as much as any sane human being would".

"But how can you ask me that question when you are speaking for the very entities who created ISIS in the first place? It's actually a moot point."
