Sorry... that's NOT what the treaty says.

It says there must be some kind of initial tribunal to determine a prisoner's staus, before the presumption that the protections of the Geneva protocols apply can be dismissed.

(I understand there are some tens of thousands of detainees, not of course counting the non-reported ones in secret detentions, are you claiming that you have personal knowledge of each and every one of them? No, I thought not.)
