That's not what the editorial said at all -- they said that Professor Sternhell had advocated killing settlers. This paragraph seems unambiguous in its advice:
Actually, I was trying to focus on the editorial, though the comment, imputing this to "many so-called liberals" is from your leadin. Here it is:
This is a good editorial. It is one thing to disagree with the settlement policy. It is another to say, "the settlers have it coming, you can kill them big and small" as many so-called liberals are now saying (in effect, and sometimes in almost those words):
As for the rest of your reply, no doubt you can find all sorts of quotes advocating all sorts of things. My response was to something else, a form of argumentation, which we see most prominently here, like that used by Pipes, which argues that critics of a policy are on the other side, are guilty, however implicitly, of advocating, in this particular case, murder.
Changing the subject, as you've done in this reply, doesn't change the tactic. |
