Roughly translated: "On other matters it is my opinion that Carthage should be destroyed"
It's a quote from Cato in between the 2nd and the 3d Punic war who ended _every_ speech in the Senate with that sentence. No matter what the subject was. And in the end, Carthage was destroyed.
The discussion here reminds me of the strong rival beaten down but allowed to live... until the Cato in SA gains some influence.
