I understand your complaint against Mr. Weiss but that's not a Straw Man. You haven't explained at all how the argument is a Straw Man. In logic, a Straw Man is a misrepresentation of an argument that essentially makes the argument easier to defeat because the misinterpreter can easily defeat the misrepresented argument. You've just argued that Weiss misinterpreted the passage "Justice, Justice you shall pursue." Okay, fair enough, I gather that's the whole point of the article; what's the proper interpretation of the passage? A simple statement that you disagree is good enough, don't throw around logic terms attempting to deconstruct the argument unless you're going to elaborate on how its logically flawed.
