The enemy cut off the head of one man and put it on the internet. It's a horrible thing. But it isn't plural.

Is every man and woman that we are holding guilty of a crime? Has that been verified and by what court? Who are you to say who is being held and for what? Can you say and with what certainity that all of those men and women are being held for killing American soldiers?

We are playing by our rules but it's allright because they are OUR rules.

Are you certain the CIA or the millitary has not tortured or killed an enemy combatant during an interrogation? If they had, does it make it allright since it was done with a purpose that would further our cause under a cloak of secrecy?

Are we now able to justify inhumane behavior because our own have been the recipiant inhumane behavior?
