Yes ...but they are not covered by the Geneva convention.

Of course they are.

No, they're not. They represent NO country, and wear NO uniform. You have no idea of what you speak.

Of course they are.

Sorry, to be covered by the Geneva Convention you must wear a uniform, and have identification to the country you are fighting for. Without these you do not get "Prisoner of War" status and attendent benefits of the Geneva Convention.

I remember the Laws of Armed Conflict classes I had when I was in the military. The instructors were very clear in the point that the United States never signed the Geneva Convention. We simply agree in principle. So, if this is true, we are not bound by it as in Treaty. Any lawyer types out there that can confirm?

My map seems to be out of date. I've been searching for the country Al-Qaeda but can't find it anywhere. Would you please tell me

1. What continent it's on?

2. When did it become a nation?

3. Is it ruled by a President, a Dictator, a King, a Queen?

4. What kind of uniform does their military wear?
