re: How long did we detain POW's in other wars without a court hearing? So how long is the "war on terror" going to go?

re:Of all the articles and columns I have read in recent days about the injustice of stripping detainees of their right to seek access to our courts to challenge the legality of their detention, this is my favorite. Civil rights are extended to US citizens - they are not. How long did we detain POW's in other wars without a court hearing? There is such as thing called the Geneva Conventions, of which we are signatory. I suggest you read up on its provisions.
