What goes against everything America stands for is capitulation to the demands of terrorists. If we obey the demands of the terrorists, they will learn that threatening to kill kidnapped civilians is an effective method of achieving their political goals. Thus, they will use the tactic again... and again.
If we wish to end the cycle of violence, we must show the terrorists that their kidnapping efforts are pointless: we must not give in.
