Just assume for a moment, they are given POW status. How long are POW's usually held? If my memory serves me, POW's are usually held until hostilities end. To do otherwise would be to return them to combat.

These non-traditional combatants were at war against the US and others without benefit of country or uniform. It seems to me they could have been legally executed on the field of battle. They should be grateful for the humanities they have been accorded.

However, these left-wing screwballs continue to act as if we just pick Achmed up off the street because we don't like his name, or whatever, and throw him into a gulag. Idiots!

But we should exercise the humane method of "catch and release" like we do with domestic felons.

As soon as they're back on the street, they're back to their old habits.

Execution always works.
