Explanation

Editorials often reveal the writer’s opinion through emotionally charged or judgmental language. “Handing them a death sentence” and “would be a disgrace” express strong condemnation, while “undermines our credibility as a humane country” makes an evaluative claim about the country. The other phrases are more neutral descriptions or facts.
