People, the "uniform", "POW" issue is a red herring. The article I read said that some were wearing the "attire" of the Fedayeen. I don't think that constitutes a uniform and they are not a regular army. As I understand it, it just indicated to our troops that they may have been Fedayeen (maybe they were wearing all black, etc) but it has no bearing on POW status, or Geneva Convention rules.
