Suppose we want to get information from them,like maybe where their leaders are,or upcoming plans? Dead men tell no tales. And wouldn't it be nice to actually CAPTURE the terrorists with their plans,papers,and other intelligence data intact,instead of blowing everything up? (especially if they might have bio/chem materials you do not want spread by an explosion,or a quantity of high explosives that might detonate.) > >> >> Known terrorists who have been captured unharmed by our troops? > > This is the problem, they are either POW's, or they are crimainals. > Both status' carry certain responsibilities for our people. Uh,POWs must be in UNIFORM to be accorded Geneva Convention treatment. Those not in uniform are terrorists and do not fall under the Convention. Nor are they common criminals,thus no civil legalities.. >> >> Known criminals (NOT involved in any terrorist activities at all), in >> Iraq for example? > > Sounds like we need to hold them until the Iraqi courts can deal with > them.

Even Zarqawi says that the reason for their acts is to prevent the establishment of any democracy,they will only allow a strict Islamic rule,as determined by THEM.That's why they kill "collaborators" and innocent bystanders,and women and children. -- Jim Yanik jyanik at kua.net |
