Should President Trump go to war with Iran?

Criterion Con Tie Pro Points
Better arguments ✗ ✔ ✗ 3 points
Better sources ✗ ✔ ✗ 2 points
Better spelling and grammar ✗ ✔ ✗ 1 point
Better conduct ✗ ✗ ✔ 1 point
Reason:CON was way ahead after R1 but never engaged PRO's counters and never fleshed out points. Conduct to PRO for making an entry in every round.

Vote Reported: Dr.Franklin // Mod Action: Removed

Points awarded: 3 points to pro for arguments, one point to con for conduct

RFD: Yes there was a forfeit but I feel like Con had better arguments. She explained loss of life, threatening peace, etc. Pro did not respond to this nor gave facts.

Reason for mod action: The conduct point is sufficient, though the argument point is not. To award argument points, the voter must (1) survey the main arguments and counterarguments in the debate, (2) weigh those arguments and counterarguments against each other, and (3) explain, based on the weighing process, how they reached their decision.

Points awarded: Full 7 points to pro

RFD: I would like to thank both opponents for this debate.
POOR CONDUCT
Con has ff the majority of the rounds of the debate which is poor conduct
I ask the other voters to consider this when voting on conduct as well.

Reason for mod action: Although con forfeited half the rounds, it is not enough to award full 7 points to pro. Conduct is sufficiently explained, though they need to justify the remaining points.

Iran commits human rights abuses. They should be punished somehow. They agreed to give up their nukes in exchange for lifting the sanctions. We should somehow get more from Iran, such as fixing the human rights abuses that are there.

Damn right.
