| So you are basically arguing that the Bush administration is not violating the Geneva Convention. The Supreme Court obviously is saying that you are wrong.
Once upon a time, America stood for something more than brutality. Washington established as policy that all British prisoners would be treated humanely regardless of the abuses committed by the British against Americans. A 230 year old tradition of humanity trashed by the Bush administration. The Bushbots must be so pround, finally putting that wimp George Washington in his place.
If we match barbarism with torture, murder with "collateral damage" where woman and children are blown away with a backhanded slur that it was "their own damn fault," then the difference between ourselves and our enemies gets pretty damn small.
