#4 Well, tu, Hogan was a legitimate prisoner of war under the terms of the Geneva Convention, which both the US and Germany largely followed. The detainees at Gitmo are illegal combatants under the Geneva Convention. They can be given a summary hearing to determine their status and then shot if found to be illegal combatants. If the supporters of these prisoners really understood the Geneva Convention, they wouldn't be bleating so much about the US enforcing it.
