You don't get it. You are willing to throw the country away to save
your own; that is not patriotism. The USA does not torture. That is a
core value.

“‘Treat them with humanity, and let them have no reason to complain of
our copying the brutal example of the British Army in their treatment of
our unfortunate brethren who have fallen into their hands,’ he wrote. In
all respects the prisoners were to be treated no worse than American
soldiers; and in some respects, better. Through this approach,
Washington sought to shame his British adversaries, and to demonstrate
the moral superiority of the American cause.”

In the worst of times – when foreign troops literally occupied American
soil, torturing and murdering American patriots – and few believed that
the cause of the revolution could ultimately win against the might of
the British Empire, the first Commander in Chief of the U.S.A. set the
precedent that this society is to lead even our enemies by “benignant
sympathy of [our] example.” To win the war against the occupying army of
Redcoats, the American revolutionaries needed right on their side."
