If the al-Qaida terrorists captured and taken aren't "irregulars" which are specifically NOT covered by the Geneva convention, then nobody is.
This is where the Guardian's argument completely collapses.
Typical leftist dribble written by clueless Marxists in their ivory towers....

Worth repeating. Because this is where the entire argument begins. And ends.
"Irregulars" are not subject to the Rules of War and may be executed on the spot. Their lives are forfeit and these cockroaches continue to live only at our forebearance.
Period.
