Showing someone's picture on TV, when compared with things like torture, sexual degradation, and the murder of prisoners, seems pretty low level to me.

Well, what things seem to you is not even the issue. You can't show pictures of captured military on public media according to the GC. Iran has decided the GC is not worth following. As a result, Iranians should not be entitled to GC benefits, don'tcha think?

In your personal life, if someone makes a pact with you, and breaks it, do you still feel obligated to honor your side when it comes to them? If so, you're about the only one. Contracts are contracts. If you don't hold up your end of the bargain, you aren't entitled to your share of the kitty.

The Brits on TV didn't seem too stressed out. They seemed great, considering. Why don't WE put the Gitmo prisoners on TV?
