Muddled thinking and far too many unsupported assertions. Bad journalism.

What a confusing article. Almost impenetrable! It looks like he has been in a room with a few office juniors, throwing out words and phrases to put on a piece of flipchart paper, then he's dashed off to turn that mess into an article, on peril of being carpeted for not submitting something to the boss! He can do better than this.

A very strange mishmash of ideas.

Maybe we should sort out our own house first as we seem to have supplied the chemicals required to make sarin in the first place. So much for our moral high ground.

This article in the Guardian (which I also think has largely 'lost it'; I used to love that paper, was brought up on it) is outrageous. The comments show much more sense.

Cohen just doesn't get it.
