 Their fear of tarnishing the reputations of those terrorists who
murdered over 3,000 American citizens on 9/11/2001 seems to outweigh
their willingness to discover information to prevent further attacks
from the battlefield combatants.
Every few days we hear over our news stations that actually choose
to report those atrocities that children are being beheaded when
they fail to recant their Christianity; women are being raped and
kidnapped and sold into slavery if they fail to renounce Jesus, and
men being crucified or killed outright simply for being Christian.
Older men on their jihad mission are forcing young girls as young as
nine or ten years old into a "marriage" to middle-aged men. These
atrocities are real, and they are aimed at those who have given
themselves to Christ. Yet, some of the same people who are decrying
the past use of "enhanced interrogation" procedures as "torture"
have very little, if anything to say about what is happening with a
"religion" of extreme behaviors.

Does that mean those individuals would use the same logic following the
attack on America at Pearl Harbor? Does that mean when engaged in any
war fought by the United States during the past seventy years that
Americans are now at fault for any violence endured by peoples around
the world while in the midst of those wars? Does that mean that if any
further battlefield combatants are captured and have information of
future attacks on American cities there should be no efforts to discover
those facts and simply let the attacks proceed as planned by the
terrorists? Or does that mean we should sit on our hands regarding
interrogations and simply send drones to those populated areas where we
know the bad guys are hiding behind human, civilian shields to kill all
who get in the way?
