Bullshit. This is entirely a partisan issue. Everyone who hates us for Abu G already hated us for Iraq, and for Afghanistan, and probably for France. No minds were changed; all that happened was a new label was provided. In the grand scheme of things, this is a talking point for one party, and nothing more. The day we as a nation adopt the morals of the Abu G guards, call me. Until then, this is a small group of people given too much discretion who fucked up badly.
