OK,from this point forward we should shoot all prisoners taken on the battlefield.That would put an end to this problem.
This is why the US should have, from the very start of the WoT, engaged in “brainwashing”.
Not brainwashing as a means of political indoctrination, but to make those prisoners averse to committing aggressive acts of violence against others.
Again, not with the “A Clockwork Orange” model, in that they would still be at liberty to protect themselves against violent acts, just that they would no longer *want* to attack others.
This in no way violates their human rights, because there is no human right to attack and maim or murder others. And once the brainwashing was done, if there were no outstanding criminal charges, they could be returned to their people.
Other than physical actions, they should be less responsive to those who advocate violence. It is not necessary for them to reject even that, just that they would be unwilling to act on that provocation.
Because typical brainwashing has a rapid rate of decay before being overcome by the subject, a tiny, very long lasting chip would be implanted in their mastoid behind an ear. Periodically, it would give off subtle clicking sounds, that would signal the subject to reinforce his training.
Had the US done this at the onset of the WoT, by now there would be thousands of ex-terrorists sent back home. In turn, their lack of desire to commit terrorist acts would be noted by others, further dampening the overall enthusiasm to hurt and kill others.
When are we going to learn that these vermin have NO qualms about lying? Shame and guilt for dishonesty is not in their culture -- it's going to kill us if we don't learn that!
