Firstly you can't make that statement with that level of conviction because it is an argument from ignorance. You don't have another world you can observe without the west to see what would happen in the east. Therefore you are talking shit mate.
From what I've read from Dragonetti, he's been in the Middle East for a long time. I can't see any reason for him to lie about his experiences, so maybe you're barking up the wrong tree.
I respectfully disagree. Even if Dragonetti is Arab, he has still made an argument from ignorance. Perhaps you think I was referring to him having no knowledge of the area. I was not. He simply doesn't have another earth with no west to compare to the current situation. So it is an argument from ignorance even if his entire liniage comes from the Middle East. That is of no consequence.
