Imprisonment without trial is customary practice in war. In fact,
trials of prisoners of war are typically (but not always) against
various international conventions.

The Bush administration is doing plenty wrong w.r.t the Guantanemo
prisoners, but holding them without trial isn't precisely one of them.
