In the interest of universal balance I find it fair to point out they feel the same way about you.

  If they didn't before these torture activities, well, they sure do now!

    > no "let's look at their side" I think there is a lot to gain trying to anticipate what your enemy might want to do. That's the job of intelligence agencies. Terrorists are convinced they're doing something good and fair. If you can understand that, you can retreat from a mentality of conflict and de-escalate. When you invade a country to target a few bad guys, those terrorist groups will be politically reinforced because you set a military foot in their country for whatever reason. Setting a military foot in another country is a very risky move. > You're a funny guy and obviously never served in the military. Terrorism isn't solved with the military, it's solved with politics and diplomacy. Ten wasps will always manage to sting a bull if they want to. Can a bull win against all the wasps ? I don't think so. Guerilla warfare can't be dealt with firepower. It's dealt with political strategy and intel. I totally agree with you that terrorists are bullies who only have their own opinions and that it's stupid for them to use violence, and that the only way to stop them is with violence. But it should be done with the same kinds of weapons: finesse, stealth and efficiency. If the bull downs all the trees because he was stung by 3 wasps, he will lose the conflict.
