How charitable of an interpretation. It has the air of "I only have consensual sex. We had sex, therefore it must have been consensual"...

But did he instruct them before to seek victory? If he did, then your set of tautologies just contradicted themselves...

If he sought victory, then he believed it was a just case and would not settle. If he settled, then he believed it was a unjust case and would not fight. If such a person settles and fights then they are acting in two contradictory ways which is called hypocrisy.

Given that they clearly settled we must either believe they are acting consistently and thus believe the case to be just. Or they both settled and fought (or believe the case to be unjust) which means they are acting inconsistently and are thus hypocrites.

That concludes my lesson in elementary logic.

		I gotta admit, in your grandparent post I responded after reading only your first paragraph, having the "Or"-clause in a separate paragraph made it sound like you were using logic to be very charitable. I guess after this lesson of logic I need to take a lesson in proper reading, and you perhaps need one for writing.
