Abstract:
Discusses rhetorical analysis and the standards for analyzing what makes a good political argument. Takes as example the datum that "Zionism equals racism, " and the counter-argument that this is a falsehood. Analyzes an article in a newspaper relating to the silence of journalists regarding antisemitism and lack of balance regarding the treatment of Jewish rights and nationalism. Discusses rhetorical and philosophical aspects of the arguments in the article, concluding that it is a good example of instability in good political reasoning.
Note:
Refutation of the logic of the argument that "Zionism equals racism".
