The big problem in the *they had it coming -- look what they did to us!* thinking here is that it is the same type of thinking people express in justification of the Ferguson riots: *they had it coming -- look what they did to us!*
It's plain hypocritical.
There is nothing barbaric here in the capture and detainment without trial of enemy combatants as the jihadis continue to make war against the ''infidel.'' What is barbaric are the torture methods used. Fuck with the USA the USA fucks you back.
