Greetings, Susan.
    If you are well, it is well.
    As to unique meaning of attack, in general, i find baha'i
authority expects obedience of anything and everything even
asking one to suspend conscience and principle, and defines the
hesitation to do so as attack.
    Constructive criticism as I understand it (Being quite a
fallible individual, I welcome being handed dictionary and increased
understanding) is what leads to improvement of situation.
    Look at all i ever posted to so displease the UHJ. What was my
intent. It was that the UHJ itself achieve increased esteem. However
misguided I have been there is no question of such comments, in my
mind being an attack.
    Another point, recently I heard the point that if a woman has
been abused, then she is prone to anger and shouting or whatever
back, but her anger and shouts may this properly be termed abuse?
it was a response. very interesting point when the tuning forks
and the reverberations start going. So, both UHJ expecting obedience 
of anything at all and those expecting principle feel abused and
un listened to. Well, solution is not for those seeking justice to
to obey anything at all, to just take abuse indefinitely, and can
you find a way out of this dilema, then it will be truly a meritorious
deed.
                                                      Be Ever Well,
                                                         Michael
