Confronted the assassination question plainly ('I am in favor of assassinating leaders who are killing 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 Iranians') and conceded the US 'shouldn't have backed Saddam Hussein'; recorded 33.5 weighted fallacy points across 6,609 words, recasting Smith's claim as 'Jews cause antisemitism.
