I guess you are the arbiter of the proper Christian response? I think not.

Matthew 25:
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

I don't see any "escape clauses" here. Jesus doesn't say we don't have to comfort our political enemies.

There you go again... twisting the words of our Lord. Jesus would not give succor to evil.
You do not see evil. You equivocate the terrorists with the innocents described in the verses you quote.
I guess it's all perception. Scripture also deals extensively with false Christs and prophets. I guess you will hug them too???
