Of course not! I am an AMERICAN. I am sure they do not "Support" us torturing citizens of their countries.
Support is the wrong word choice - what I'm getting at is whether you would think it's justified for others to torture Americans if they believe they're doing it for their own protection?
If it is morally justified for Americans to do it to others if Americans believe that it is for our own protection, then it has to be justified for others to do it to Americans if they believe it is for their own protection. How could it be morally okay for us but not them? If it's because we're somehow better or simply inherently more "just" than they are, it's no different than their belief that jihad is a just and holy conclusion of Islam. It's fallacy all around.
It just means that morality has nothing to do with it, and that's what bothers people. It's as if torture no longer means anything.
