He should have been treated according to the Geneva Convention; shot on the spot as an illegal combatant.

He asked to be shot. The US forces refused to do so, and patched up the places where they had shot him in the back twice.

Do you happen to have the date of when we became an “Occupying Power” of Afghanistan under the Hague/Geneva Conventions? I can’t find it.

Absolutely!

Great. Another "expert."

The Geneva Conventions do not allow summary executions of anyone - whether "lawful" or "unlawful"- without the benefit of a trial.
