"It's a trap!" Admiral Ackbar

I'm not interested in debate of this topic, as virtually every time I have engaged in such in the past it's quickly become obvious that the other person was not engaging in good faith with an open mind.

There is plenty of information to be found from all sides on the topic on the net, and if you're truly interested you should invest the time to look it over with a skeptical eye while knowing there's a good amount of propaganda from both sides. You'll have to figure out which sources are most trustworthy, and factual in their reporting - although even the more biased sources often make good points to be considered. Then compare and contrast stories to find the essential facts that are most likely to actually be true and go from there.

Good luck.
