Wouldn't it be 'Subject to attack?'
If not, let me know!
It's an example of emotive language.
Emotive language is the deliberate word choice that is used to evoke emotion (usually to influence).
Ideas can be expressed non-emotively: "you spent your whole weekend helping me move". Or they can be expressed in a more positive or negative way: "<span>you're a fantastic person"</span>
