"I would bring back waterboarding, and I would bring back a [whole] lot worse than waterboarding."
“… and if it doesn’t work, they deserve it anyway for what they do to us”These are the words of someone who does not believe in the golden rule. Instead of doing unto others as we would have them do unto us, he wants to do unto others as they have done unto us.
The result of this is easy to understand. Instead of trying to make others better, by being better ourselves, and being a good example for them, we are going to make ourselves just as bad as they are. Everything we criticize them for doing, we are doing exactly the same things to them. And often worse things, simply because we can.
We have unmanned drones, so we can kill them whenever we want, and call our assassinations "targetting killings". They have no drones, so when they use low tech bombs to do the exact same thing, we call their assassinations "terrorism".
