An expression used meaning "We'll fight the same way they do", usually implying that they are fighting in a dirty or unfair manner.
This expression is oft put to ill use. Many have fought, and decided that because the enemy has done something perfectly barbaric, that they have permission to do it also. In doing so, they forget the principals for which they were fighting, and the battle becomes a simple personal battle between the two sides, purpose be damned. Thus, fighting fire with hypocrisy.
