It seems that people have forgotten why the rules of war came into being. This includes Geneva. It was a as an effort to civilize war ...LOL... The reality is it was an effort to protect civilians (politicians) from the brutalities of war and extended to the treatment of soldiers. This was supposed to be an enforceable instrument that the UN had police powers over. YEAH right!!!
Rule one. Win the war and your not a war criminal.
Rule two. Terrorist aren't protected by any law.
Rule three. To be protected you must be wearing a clearly identifiable uniform or clearly a civilian.
Rule four. Muslims are exempt from any protection until they can exhibit traditional values of human beings.
Pain will induce terrorist to talk. In fact enough will make them beg to be killed, of course this is just hearsay.
I'm sure bamboo under the fingernails will get them to talk a lot faster.
How long do we have to use kid gloves when we play with these scum?
