>> one of the problems is the unwillingness of the US government to simply put these people on trial, find out if they are guilty or not, and then sentence them.

Good. I agree. Write to your congressman and demand it.

>> The problem is that Muslims don't recognise the Geneva Convention.

How does their lack of belief prevent US from following the Geneva Convention? You either believe in it or you don't. Make up your mind and follow up according to your own values and obligations.

>> So Muslims think nothing of...using torture...At some point Americans need to try to appear strong and ruthless.

May I suggest in order to appear "tough" we try the following and then some. Surely then we'll win the love and respect of the whole world over, let alone the Muslims.
