It is the almost fanatical cheering,chanting, etc. I have seen this evening (and I am not singularly referring to this board... even in real life) that prompted this post. We, America, are different from the enemy because we hold higher standards, even in killing someone. We are the cut above... we HAVE TO BE... or else we are no different than the enemy we fight.
Yep. As the saying goes, take care in fighting monsters that you don't become one. Or, when one sups with the devil one needs a long spoon.
