That's an old propaganda standby - both sides are the same, it's all just opinion. Nothing distinguishes U.S. policy from Stalin's, they would say in the Cold War.
But there is good and evil in the world, and if we don't distinguish between them then we are accomplices for the latter. Furthering hate is not the same as opposing it; oppressing people is not the same as fighting for their freedom.
