Ted had better get his terms and assumptions right quick.

Torture of POWs is illegal and unnecessary and unproductive.

THESE SCUMBAGS ARE NOT POWS.

Back in the day, when rules of war were actually definable, they would be called spies, assassins, and saboteurs. No trial. Caught up to mischief while not in uniform, they could expect no less than to be put against the wall and shot.

These assholes’ lives are already forfeit, by Geneva Convention standards.

I like that scene from “Breaker Morant”:

“Did you discontinue the practice of placing prisoners in rail cars? NO? Well Why not, if you found it so disagreeable!?”.

I think I would rather be waterboarded than killed stone dead with a drone-strike.

[ THESE SCUMBAGS ARE NOT POWS. ]

Correct, POWs are Soldiers fighting for a Nation State that were Captured by the other side....

What Nation State besides their imaginary Caliphate are the Islamo-Aminals fighting for?
