All of these peaceniks who are screaming that we should be fighting the "war on terrorism" and not war against a nation whose government has declared UN binding resolutions "null and void", and revealed the institution to be nothing more a confederation of special interests who will be so brash as to put their own economic interests in front of the enforcement of your precious "international law".. What are you talking about? You said tribunals to determine POW status would not be held until the war is over, and I said the war on terrorism is such a general subject that it will never be "over". I was trying to show it is absurd to say "no determination of POW status until hostilities cease". >>>Oh that must be why the legal community is screaming bloody murder over Bush's treatment of prisoners? They don't know the Geneva Convention?<<< No.. that must be why they are also refusing to enforce the binding UNSC resolutions that have been outstanding against Iraq for 12 years.. right?? What does that have to do with the world's legal community saying Bush is not honoring the Geneva Convention based on the law? How can ICJ enforce UN resolutions??? Are you completely gone? :-) I haven't heard many CREDIBLE legal authorities state that the US is breaking any international law. If ICJ is not credible for you, you must be living in a different world than planet Earth. If you understood the goals of the Islamo-Fascists, you would know THAT IS THEIR GOAL [Sharia as International law]. One world, under Allah (and thus, under Sharia).. Hawk - With all due respect, you don't know what you are talking about. Sharia has nothing to do with international law. It cannot.
