Hey fellow, do you think that the soldiers at the prison were following orders or just having a day in the park?

We didn't have any control on 9-11, we didn't have any control on Berg's beheading.

We do have control on what we do in our prisons. Do you see the difference?

Every American is appalled at what happened on 9-11. Every American is appalled at Berg's beheading. Every American is appalled at the prisoner treatment.

The difference between these appalling events is that we are responsible for the prisoner abuse.

It's not a comparison of events by gruesomeness. Nor do we justify actions of terrorists by becoming terrorists ourselves.
