If you are referring to the Daniel Pearl killing, entertaineme, then I take back my initial response. Because questioning my reaction or feelings about such a despicable act is too low, insulting, and misleading of a question to deserve an answer.
You seem to have a severe bitterness toward those who take a left of center view. I may not agree with you on a ton of issues, but I would never stoop to accusing you of being a terrorist sympathizer, or impugn your love of your country or your priorities.

I'm saying that the outrage is deafening over any western government policy to deal with our enemies. Meanwhile, the murderous brutality of the enemy is glossed over and excused.
No, it is not. No one here has done so. But I would rather not put myself on their level. You seem to have no such reservations.
Again, just because I think my country should not torture others does not mean I'm all for others doing so, and your framing things in such either/or terms is beneath you.
