National security, I have been told repeatedly by my government, makes it acceptable for the government to use enhanced interrogation techniques and systematic political assassination with no or little regard for surrounding human welfare nor citizenship.

Is Assad not afforded these same tools?

Comparing what Assad is accused of doing with what "your government" (America, I assume) has done in the past makes you look ignorant and silly.

Don't take cheap shots when the punchline is a lot of innocent dead people.
