Washington and Jefferson did not kill U.S. troops in defending a slave regime. Your Confederate heroes did. That's the difference.
Killing U.S. troops, whether for slavery or for Allah, will get no defending from me. That's your speciality.

"That's your specialty" What is this, a schoolyard? Ad hominem isn't a substitute for argument, but perhaps it's the best you can muster.
As to the problems with your argument, there were no "U.S. troops" for Washington to kill, so that claim is ahistorical. But there were British troops and Washington killed plenty of them. Washington was still a British subject, a rebel and a traitor against his government, terms the Union would apply to the Confederates 90 years later, when like the Crown they sought to crush a rebellion.
As to Washington and Jefferson not defending a slave regime, both were slaveowners and slavery was part of the United States "regime" that they helped bring to independence.
A further problem with your argument is that the last British governor of Virginia, Lord Dunmore, in 1775 declared all slaves free who were loyal to the Crown and willing to fight for it. It is the first American emancipation proclamation, and rebels like Washington and Jefferson were fighting on the side of slavery against the forces of emancipation.
