Also state the criteria you use in reaching your decision (i.e., the presence of indicator words, the nature of the inferential link between premises and conclusion, or the character or form of argumentation).

Paying off terrorists in exchange for hostages is not a wise policy, since such action will only lead them to take more hostages in the future.
