"changing" the Geneva convention? The admin should characterize it as clarifying or adding to Geneva convention on what to do with captured terrorists. My understanding is we would follow the Geneva Convention as is for conventional warfare between armies with uniforms.

The Geneva Convention is about as relevant to war as the Kyoto Treaty is to the realities of our world.

NONE.

A piece of feel good legislation that has no place in a war!
