Identifying Deductive Syllogisms.Read the following arguments and choose the BEST response. Focus on the italicized portion of the passages.Background: Last month, whistle blowing giant, WikiLeaks, founded by Julian Assange, released over 390,000 reports from the U.S. Army on the war in Iraq from 2004 to 2009. Allegations of human rights violations were contained in the reports. People disagree about whether the documents should or should not be released to the public. Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) argues that:“We need a true accounting of the war in Iraq [which can only be done by thorough investigation of every US agency involved]. The American people have a right to know how many innocent civilians were killed in a war based on lies. It is sincerely incredible to fathom that such huge amounts of pertinent information were kept purposely hidden from the public and, more importantly, the country that we have sworn to protect.

What form does Congressman Kucinich’s argument take (that is standardized in Question #6)?A. Inductive argument B. Deductive argumentC. Cogent Argument D. None of the above8. What would be the best evaluation of the argument standardized in Question #6?A. Deductive argument that passes the Proper Form testB. Inductive argument that passes the Proper Form testC.
