Let me ask you this. In our entire history of fighting wars “by the rules” (even though I can argue we never in actuality did AND site examples, but thats another debate) please tell me when we have EVER fought one where the enemy uses the tactics that this one does. In that I’m sure there isn’t one, don’t our tactics;/ rules/ even laws need to change in fighting them?

We’ve fought a lot of wars against groups that behave similarly - Vietnam is a really good example.

We need to understand that these people do awful things - that’s part of the reason that we’re at war with them. But understanding them should not be becoming them.
