After reading the rest of Kenney's letter, I largely agree with his points. That said, my original comment stands; his letter would be much more effective if he didn't include the passage quoted in the OP. What he thought was a clever cheap shot regarding Iran and North Korea was in actuality a red herring fallacy.
