Whoever wrote this has no clue about the Law of War, which long preexisted the United States, and which the Geneva Conventions (and the preceding Hague Conventions) were based on. To get an understanding of the Law of War, which Congress, the President and the Supreme Court have all recognized and applied, read my article this week, "Nathan Hale Died for a Dumb Nation."

For centuries there have been clear distinctions between those who are captured and "held for the duration," those who should be tried by military tribunals, and those who should be shot on sight. Read and learn.
