Mass killings of innocent civilians are commonly carried out by "soldiers of a legitimate state."

OK, so nuclear attacks by soldiers justify it. How about conventional strategic bombing? Invasions? Exactly where and why do you draw the line, if you're not drawing it where you previously said?

I'll admit, you've got me.

I don't know where I would draw the line, but in the case of Qeada/ISIS, they are well across my personal fuzzy gray line.

I think you'd better sit down and think about it a bit more before publicly advocating for torturing prisoners, then.
