The Geneva Convention applies to Nation States, not to Ali Babba and his 40 thugs.

Agreed but the socialists tell us that we must treat these savages as lawful combatants because if we do that will “protect” our soldiers from any mistreatment but what really happens our guys are killed and the so called human rights groups are very,very silent!

Please understand I was using sarcasm ,I feel very strongly that armed combatants without national insignia should be shot on the battle field as customary under the rules of war.I was making fun of those morons who want to extend both Geneva convention & Miranda rights on these savages.It amazes me that the same people that are worried about these savages have no concern about the people who are putting their lives on line like your son.We are told that we should give these savages their “rights” so when our people are captured they will have the Geneva protections which we know won't receive .
Thank your son for his service and my prayers are for the missing and please remember Matt Mapin from Ohio missing for 2 1/2 years in Iraq.
