You are indeed misrepresenting what I wrote. Not terribly surprising, in fact, run of the mill for you.
The PM of Israel is not merely an expert, as you put it. So you don't think the ex-PM of Israel or former Presidents like Bill Clinton are in the know about world events, and you imagine that because of their lack of knowledge and being in the dark, they have to make guesses based on what they see on the news, and they are subject to blind spots with those guesses. That's your position. Not misrepresenting it.
And that opinion of yours, is naive as shit. When you're in these elite circles, you are told what is going on. If you think Bill Clinton or the ex PM of Israel aren't privy to the goings ons of the world and that they have to make due with guess work like the rest of us schlubs, then you are free to have that opinion I guess. We have Christians and Muslims on here talking about just as crazy of ideas as you just brought up, so why not bring in your crazy too? Extreme ignorance is welcome here. Hopefully you learn a thing or two over your stay here. Cheers.
No, you were the one who said even experts can get it wrong. Why are you bow trying to turn this around, unless you are indeed full of shit and yourself, which is, by the bye, my opinion of you?

So is your Israeli premier "highly qualified"? Does he escape your scrutiny because he has a title?
You have not shown evidence for what you think is "obvious", except to quote someone who is in your opinion "highly qualified", while at the same time you have not laid out his qualifications nor solid evidence to back up his claim. You've said his word is enough, but you've also said that the words of "highly qualified" people can still be wrong.
Do you now see your mental lapse? I do. In short, this is an appeal to authority. The fact that you don't yourself recognize this marks you as a slipshod thinker.
