I do not support either. Would you?
That's not the point. To not protect yourself against the wolves is foolish, I submit to go out looking for the wolves is equally as foolish but it is what my country choose to do.

The people you are talking about are animals. A USMC private who did the most tame things these terrorists do to their OWN people would be shamed and sent to prison. And that would happen had he done it to the enemy.

That is the difference.
