11. Do you think the British considered Washington whatever they called a terrorist back then?

The principal is the same. "America" was British at the time Washington decided to fight against the British. What would history consider Washington if the British had won the Revolutionary war? It is always the winner that writes the history.

As far as ISIS is concerned I would consider them more of an army than a terrorist group. Every description of them sounds more like an army than a terrorist group. This is also the group we supported in Syria not so long ago, especially someone also named McCain.

What should we do about the Americans that join the Israeli armed forces? Lately many would argue that they are terrorists, where would you draw the line?

What if McCain were fighting for the other side, should he still be condemned? Were the Americans that fought alongside the British before America joined WWII to be considered terrorists?

Can you tell me how America or Americans other than himself got harmed by his actions? The man obviously had many problems, liberals would try to help him not condemn him, which most likely would include a trip through the justice system.
