I'm certain that the Geneva Convention was scrupulously followed! Shooting someone in the back two times is OKAY as long as you say, "May I" Furthermore it states quite succinctly in section 69 that all female combatants are to be raped and otherwise physically abused!

SARCASAM ALERT!!!!

I was listening to O'Reilly today and some dimbulb "Rat" was goin' on and on about the Abu Grahib "torture" and the Geneva convention. I got out of the service in '73 but I do remember some of my training. You only have to provide "Name, Rank, and Cereal number!" lacking the rank, uniform and Geneva Convention status as a combatant you can be considered a spy or saboteur! In the movie, "The Great Escape" the SS machine guns the the captured escapees because they were traveling in costumes that were made over uniforms but the SS didn't read it that way. when Steve McQueens character returns to the camp and is being sent to the cooler he is told of the German atrocity.

BTAIM, I would suggest that a court be established and all detainees will be questioned. should they prove to be uncooperative they would be tried and convicted, as spies, in accordance with the Geneva convention. The world press and the other detainees would then witness the immediate hanging! I wonder how long this will go on before we see some cooperation.
