Debate the objectives, I mean. I'd also suggest the no strategy or tactics are involved in that bit -- it's pure politics.

I've been thinking about starting a thread on that but fear of "the graveyard of the banned" has prevented me from doing so.
I don't think that should deter you. Unless you get deliberately provocative, that shouldn't be a problem. Only thing I'd suggest is be real sure of your facts and avoid quoting inflammatory and suspect sources -- or blogs. I think you should post a thread if you wish.
