Others believe that the convention does not apply. We will not be able to convince you of the errors of your ways and neither will you be able to convince us of the correctness of your position.

Mr Kohn - Can you or can you not understand me when I say that the Geneva Convention CLEARLY STATES that WHEN IN DOUBT (as we clearly are now):
1) A court of law should decide whether there is POW status or not
2) UNTIL IT DOES, prisoners are to enjoy POW status

Do you get it now?

Whether right or wrong, the US and the US alone can decide how it will handle these scumbags.

Brilliant. "Defending the western civilization" against "scumbags" with flagrant disrespect for the Geneva Convention, seasoned with a "might makes right" attitude...

By the way, you did not reply on my economic overview of why the USD was going south. Any thoughts?
