Two Things That Came to Mind When Reading Alan Dershowitz’s Op-Ed in the Wall Street Journal

I missed reading “Dersh’s” op-ed in the Wall Street Journal titled Democrats and Waterboarding until this morning. After reading it, these two things came to mind:

  1. “Reluctant to torture” is not the same as “soft on terror”.
  2. “We should do it because the Nazis did it, and it worked!” is already a bad argument when put forth by a gentile; it’s doubly bad if you’re Jewish.
