Re: Watch that Pariah, it'll be you next

from my previous on this thread you'll know I agree with what you're saying grufty but I had heard that the Americans had not ratified latest version of Geneva convention - not sure whether this binds them to just the last version they did sign or not (or whether I've been misinformed) . Also that Afghanistan is not a signatory.

I do not think this excuses them in any way just that the legal position may not be that clearly defined - attempts to muddy waters further by making up new names for POW is presumably all part of the same 'gameplan'.
