I was responding to a comparison of the two regimes atrocities, and gave my slant. I agree the main motives of the two are different and one is on our side, so we'll give them a little leeway but both are immoral.
It's also convenient that CNN brings up this ISIS story right after the American torture charges as a deflection.
