There was no declaration against Afghanistan, only the Al-Quaida network.

Me either. It seems we are at an impasse. I expect some new terminology to be forth coming. We can't simply say that no uniforms designates a status. That would have made the minute men of US history terrorists, when in fact they simply didn't have the funds or cause to purchase formal uniforms. At the same time we should have some rules of treatment regarding prisoners who've engaged in terrorism or we are left with authorization to perform inhumane acts at the whim of those empowered over the prisoners. For the moment there are plenty of watch guards over this but in the long run we definitely need some rule of law in place.
