I forgot to add that in Afghanistan, we did segregate them.

Uniformed enemy troops were held as POWs and repatriated, whereas non-uniformed Al-Qaeda are being detained indefinately at Guantanamo.

Napolitano explained that although we are treating "foreign fighters" as POWS now, we reserve the right to reclassify them at a later time and treat them accordingly.

They may wind up at Gitmo, and not be repatriated to their countries, like the Iraqis "regulars" probably will be.

Thanks so much for explaining this, Yankee.
