Therefore, we should sanction the U.S, right?[/QUOTE]

Actually it appears that we are funding rebels. The article points out that the groups are targeting soldiers and government officials. That makes them rebels, not terrorists.

But of course the United States is doing it, so it must be wrong and evil.

This is just a hunch but I think most people would admit to anything after 99 lashes just to make it end.

This would all be shitty and all, except there isn't any actual evidence suggesting this is even remotely the case.

In fact the only way it would even be possible is if a small group broke the law and did it without congressional oversight. Which would make it illegal.
