I think there is more to the tape than we've been shown. Also the area they speak of is a gray area since when the Geneva convention was created we didn't have the kind of TV coverage we have now. That said I don't see any serious violation. However, if we get proof that men were killed (executed) after capture I hope you'll be as open minded about how WE MAY CHOOSE to treat POW's.

I think it is more the matter of singling each out to be spotlighted for public display. As opposed to a group picture with no tv microphone stuck in their individual face.

However I do think it is surreal for Bush to 'demand' international rules be followed. Those poor service people will unfortunately be reaping what Bush has sowed.
