Telegraph editorial
There's a nice example of what I suppose is called a leading question in the Telegraph's editorial.It says:
Who would deny the right of the American government to have detained the September 11th bombers if they had been caught on September 10th on the merest hint that they were up to no good
Well who indeed? But remove 'September 11th bombers' and replace 'American citizens', and it becomes rather less clear-cut. Remove the benefit of hindsight too, and the whole thing collapses.
