Yes, Colon, our legal system is perfect for handling EPWs.

• Our soldiers can collect casings on the battlefield to prove the enemy fired his guns.
• Then we can dust every rifle for fingerprints.
• After every firefight we'll put up yellow "crime scene" tape and have Lenny from Law and Order interrogate the local residents.
• Then we'll take soldiers out of the line to fly 7,000 miles back to CONUS to testify. After all, the accused has the right to confront his accuser.
• Maddy Ginsberg & crew will make sure at least half the jury are Islamofascists since they're to be tried by a jury of their peers.

Of course none of that would happen in the future. Any commander worth his salt would say that capturing prisoners results in too severe a degradation in fighting effectiveness. Therefore, we can no longer take prisoners. All these bleeding-heart liberals who are dying to heap rights onto these scum will face the law of unintended consequences. The people they're trying to protect will be killed instead. 72 virgins with an EZ-Pass lane.

Any more great ideas?

I have little doubt that this has happened in the field. Not because of commanders saying anything, more of a recognition of reality by the guys on the line.
