Fallacies

The first fallacie I chose is Appeal to Emotion (Argumentum Ad Misericordiam) and the article I chose is how Ecuadorian Prsident Rafael Chavez calls Columbian raids as War Crimes. The article goes on to say how President Chavez asked for international help and the Organization of the United States called the raids an attack on Ecuadorian sovereignty.

The second fallacie is the Appeal to Force (Argumentum Ad Baculum) though it is not violent, but in the buissness and political world it is. The article is on how Lawmakers are threatening to kill a tanker deal with the US Air Force. The Pentagon did not explain clearly enough why it was trying to form a partnership between Northrop Grumman and the partent group or Airbus, instead of Boeing. I understand why the House Appropriations Committee is doing this, Boeing has been the number one heavy aircraft factory since WW2.

The third fallacie is the Appeal to Improper Authority (Argumentum Ad Verecundium) though he is not famous by our but in Northern Ireland he is. Peter Robinson is the favored to be the next prodistent leader in Northern Ireland, he lead a mob attack on boarder town. Some of the press in the area say he is the best to gather the power that Ian Paisley holds as the current but out going leader.

All these fallacies have some parts to play in world politics, relations, and in buissness. All of these could be argued and discussed for a long time, though some may not have an interest about these topics/articles.
