It is a War Crime according to the Geneva Convention to fail to wear identifiable uniforms.

It is a War Crime according to the Geneva Convention to fail to wear identifiable uniforms. That's a silly observation to make. If some foreign country invaded my neighborhood today, I don't even own an "identifiable uniform" to wear while I sniped at them from my bedroom window. Would the Geneva Convention find it more acceptable for me to wear my hockey team's colors than my pajamas?
I'd also point out that under these standards it would also be a "war crime" for the U.S. to have private security contractors operating in a place like Iraq. I'm sure those guys aren't dressed like the typical security guard at an office building in New York or Chicago.

Don't you know the Geneva Convention only applies to members of the United States and allied forces?
