Responding to
Abdul El-Sayed's cycle of violence framing after the Temple Israel attack
"it’s clear he was merely trying to explain and give context for the violence."
The essay directly rejects the central criticism of El-Sayed's framing; this is more specific than the accompanying electoral endorsement.
Original personal essay, not a separate reaction by its syndicators. Reich addresses the attack-response controversy within an electoral endorsement. Only the calendar date is established; 12:00 UTC is a date-only storage placeholder, not a verified time.
