Did you notice that there was never a declaration of war? Easier to get away

Convention.


Given that the Geneva convention applies to uniformed combatants, the
insurgents and terrorists that we are fighting (Geneva Convention does not
extend protection to "irregulars" and "spies") do not fall under protection
of the Geneva convention. That we are attempting to extend those
protections to such irregulars says more about us. [as does the Al Quaeda
bill of rights that Democrat John McCain got squirrelled into the latest
defense appropriations bill].

Lots of people are war criminals depending on who you ask and who
wins the war. War criminal is pretty subjective and has been batted
around at so many people it really doesn't have much meaning anymore.
