That's why I called it confusing to terrorists. We don't simply allow, but respect and admire, a brutality in American women that both terrorists and genocidal totalitarians would simply find appalling. Their argument might be: "Sure, we were full of hate. But at least we waited until they were born, and THEN developed a reason to hate them, before we killed them."

So we win the convenient concept of individual rights (though some would call it a perversion of liberty), but yield the moral to high ground to Bin Laden, Hitler, Stalin, etc. It matters little, because we have or will prevail over those monsters. But history tends to make judgements of its own that we have little control over...
