My understanding is... to be provided the rights of a prisoner of war under the Geneva Convention, the captive must belong to a country (!) that has signed the Convention and adheres to it themselves.

These terrorist, scum, murderous thugs don't belong to a nation that has declared war on us AND they don't adhere to any rules - except their own. Ask Nick Berg, Daniel Pearl and the others who have suffered their treatment.

Therefore, IMHO - an eye for an eye... or
Off with their heads....
