Matt Maupin, of Batavia, Ohio, is still missing in Iraq. The last time this American soldier was seen he was kneeling in front of a group terrorists on the same kind of sick and sadistic videotape we've seen broadcast on the Arab propaganda network Al-Jazeera. In uniform, supposedly under the protection of the Geneva Convention…

Last time I checked, neither Al Qaeda nor the terrorist “insurgency” in Iraq, had signed the Geneva Convention, so prisoners in their control are in no way under its protection.

The reverse is also true.

exactly...so why are we worried about the rights of terrorists when they are killing our people?

Screw the Geneva Convention...it does not apply in Iraq once the Republican Guard shed its uniform.
