The straw man is the implication that TP’s criticism is based on the two things you mention (rather an easy target to knock down as framed by you, especially if one ignores the surge in violence of the past week) rather than the multitude of criticisms of O’Hanlon that TP has made in the past, including falsely presenting himself (and being portrayed as) a war critic and even his myopic whining about his lack of attention from the MSM.
