If the Arabs are going to raise holy Hell about our treatment of prisoners, they'd better be ready to look at themselves through the same prism, too

That the actions of Arabs and infidels should be weighed on the same scale is definitely a minority opinion in the Arab world. Arab hypocrisy is massive and pure. What is done to me, is unfair. What I do, is necessity.
