It would be nice if Cole addressed some of the details of the "brain dead" 
op ed if this is the one  he criticizes... ken hanly

I think he did address the article in overall terms:

``The author commits the logical fallacy of suggesting that since the US 
assisted some of the groups that later called for Morsi’s overthrow, 
Washington funded Morsi’s overthrow.
The logical fallacy involved is post hoc ergo propter hoc. What comes after 
something isn’t necessary caused by that something. That the US gave a 
little money to these groups is not proved to be connected in any way to 
their favorable view of Morsi’s overthrow, where they have one. ''
