Bill Kristol is being an etymological terrorist when he calls people who don't want to always be involved in a war "isolationists" when in fact isolationism is what North Korea has and non-interventionism is what Switzerland has.

Mind Terrorism

Mind Terrorism (Noun)/ Mind Terrorizing (Verb)- The act of mentally beraiding someone savagely. This works best on an unsuspecting subject in a public venue, as the public humiliation will only compound the pain from the verbal lashing. Mind terrorism works most successfully in small time frames (5-10 min) because it allows you to maximize the pain inflicted, without over doing it to the point of elliciting sympathy from the spectators. The goal of mind terrorizing someone is not only to mentally crush them, but to also inflict emotional pain and discomfort so as to cause lasting emotional pain long after the detonation
