As almost everyone reading Hot Air knows, these three categories of combatants have no protections under the Geneva Convention whatsoever. Almost every other country but the USA (and Israel) executes such combatants. I suggest that the USA resume executing anyone adjudged guilty of being one of these types of combatants by a military court. chsw Before shutting down Gitmo’s jihadi prison, those inmates must be tried by a military court on the charge that they were and are illegal combatants, spies or saboteurs as defined by the Geneva Convention.

We do not take prisoners! Either each battlefield captive gets a lead pill or he, or she, is instantly released, subject to immediate review by the next higher rank!" This change will remove all doubts about how well, or not, we treat battlefield prisoners and place our forces on the same level playing field as the opposition's forces! In other words, we no longer pretend to be any better than the opposition, just the same there as! We'll still be better, more humane, than them since I seriously doubt too many of our forces would use the opposition's preferred method of neck chopping!
