These are enemy troops out of uniform and should be shot after we extract all their information.

Which begs the question: Why doesn't the Administration make that clear in a language we can all understand?

For example, Condi can have a fashion show. "Here we are showing what we consider is the Official Uniform of the Al Quaeda soldier. A dingy dishdasha and a towel on their head armed with a duct-tape AK47. Anyone seen wearing this uniform is an enemy combatant.

Or, have UBL release a tape describing the new AQ uniform, and until he does, no raghead gets quarter or Geneva protections.

Because that would be blatantly illegal as well politically and diplomatically troublesome.
