Double Standards? ISIS vs. American Military

So we all seen the video of the two beheading of journalist done by ISIS or in fact a INDIVIDUAL BRITISH guy claiming to be part of ISIS and dressed in "ISIS" garb

Ok the question is can one guy who say he represent ISIS be responsible everyone in ISIS and makes ISIS responsible.

Yes there are some in ISIS who hate America, but the fact remains is that many ISIS members just want to establish their own Muslim country and are fighting for such.  Many probably don't even care about America and they just view anyone who fight against them as enemies regardless of their nationality or whatnot.

So if we hold a WHOLE group responsible for the action of one guy who claims to be a member of that group, wouldn't that make the USA responsible as a WHOLE for the INDIVIDUAL US soldiers who have committed war crimes like rape and mass murder.  Would you condemn the whole USA for the actions of the individual who wears the uniform and flag of the USA and commits crimes in it?

Not condoning or justifying ISIS or any group who promote violence but are we guilty of our own double standards.

Oh and just a side note: that ISIS beheading there is only one guy in the whole frame and a cameraman ...  and the guy isn't even a homegrown fighter he was prove to be from Britain....

Did you forget about the massacre of hundreds of Iraqi soldiers in June, soldiers that our great country trained?

Nothing to see here guys.

Shocker has some kind of White Liberal Guilt going on, and now thinks that people who want to kill all Americans are not really that bad.

Next thread please.

And the war machine marches onward...

Very good point of view Finger_Shocker. Uhm, I think all durkah durkahs are evil so take no chance.

The key difference is that the US military has an actual code and justice system for prosecuting war crimes committed by their soldiers. It also has a civilian population that responds negatively to reports of war crimes committed by their soldiers and demands their prosecution.

I don't see either of these responses from ISIS so I fail to see the double standard.

Shocker has White Liberal Guilt. It's pretty much the same reason he voted for Obama. By making statements about how great ISIS is and how we are wrong to stop them, it makes him feel better about being white.
