Then you'd read the legislation passed by Congress and the findings of the federal courts on the issue which while demanding process, did not extend rights or privileges of an American citizen in total to POWs, no matter what you personally desire.

In fact if you were an honest individual, you'd acknowledge that by the letter of the Geneva Convention most of these detainees would not receive a fraction of the concern by any other party outside a few Western countries and would have been executed by now.

#2 First of all he is a lawyer. He was educated to make everything equal. Second he is a Army reservist, not active duty. He is G2, not a warrior.
