I just disagree with you. I don't believe there were three ways to look at it.
There was one way to look at it, from what I could see, and some of us had questions, stood by the rule of law when many were screaming to send in the Marines, and decided that use of the swastika was out of bounds.
If that's "in favor of starvation," then I'll let the forum decide whether you've sized up the situation fairly.
