The only exception would be Saudi Arabia. That would indicate that they would be able to do just fine with less US aid, as they in fact did before 1967.<BR/><BR/>With regard to summary execution, the normal approach is to do that in the heat of battle. After they are captured, there is no excuse to murder prisoners taken (perhaps through wounds), or properly detained. <BR/><BR/>No, the illegal non-combatants do not deserve the protections of the Geneva protocols. Still, we should not torture them, but rather detain them. That is what we do, and what we should do, as an occupying power, as an ally to the government of Iraq. <BR/><BR/>Back during WWII, prisoners were routinely taken to the US, out of the combat theater. They were well fed, got red cross packages, and most put on weight. Very few were punished for murdering other prisoners.<BR/><BR/>After we take them, dress them in orange jumpsuits, they are then in a uniform (which we have given them).Don Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06057058763094040058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7506249.post-15548043330111071652007-07-29T09:57:00.000-05:002007-07-29T09:57:00.000-05:00I'm with the last two.

There is <A HREF="http://ajacksonian.blogspot.com/2007/06/why-do-we-refuse-to-call-terrorism-for.html" REL="nofollow">law that covers this</A>: organizations that are non-Nation State, have actually waged illegitimate war on US commerce, individuals and performed same on the High Seas and in the air, and we have a court system to handle them, too.<BR/><BR/>Admiralty courts.<BR/><BR/>No need to complain about al Qaeda on the 'are they or aren't they legitimate soldiers' deal, try them for the crimes their organization has committed and enforce the law. It is not Civil Law, but Admiralty law... and quite some few of these 'terrorist' organizations can be seen in an older light well covered by the law.<BR/><BR/>That is if you are *serious* about cleaning out Guantanamo and enforcing the law. And most of those trials from an earlier age were short and to the point. If you want that, then support the law and move out of this warfare on ground and realize that another category of illegitimate war has already been described and these organizations *fit it*.A Jacksonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07607888697879327120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7506249.post-72707796897760811942007-07-28T14:30:00.000-05:002007-07-28T14:30:00.000-05:00Yes, my bad-pidgin speaking friend, I can confirm ...Yes, my bad-pidgin speaking friend, I can confirm it all for you. For seven years until my retirement last August, I was the Tribute Master General of the United States. I received the yearly demands for billions from the Mossad, and I paid them in full from US tax dollars. I paid them in due ceremonial form, with many protestations of slavish loyalty, presenting the cheques while on my knees to show in my person the reverence due from the United States to her Israeli overlords.<BR/><BR/>Yes, it is all true, my bad-pidgin friend. I swear it upon the star of the Illuminati!
