Detention without trial and violation of various human rights... ye'know, the kind of things you are currently giving out about Middle Eastern countries doing to women in this very thread.

It's strange that you've linked to the 3rd Geneva convention, not the page for all the Geneva conventions as a whole.

You put:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Geneva_Convention

If talking about "all the applicable agreements that are collectively referred to as "the Geneva Convention"", it seems odd not to have put:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geneva_Conventions

Can you see how that caused my initial confusion on the matter?
I really don't see what's confusing. I think I clarified why I linked to that particular Convention...it is the one that is most applicable to this discussion re detainees and their status.
What's confusing? It looked like you were refering to just the one document, since you had made no mention of any of the others in your post and your link was specifically to the 3rd convention.

If you have only mentioned, referenced and linked to the 3rd convention how are people supposed to know you meant all of them?
You were the one participating in pedantry, not me.

Since the SCOTUS said trials had to be done, they are being done. See how that works? The US took the minimum standard set by the GC and exceeded it...
No the SCOTUS found the existing laws of the US were not being adhered to, and corrected the situation.
No, that's not what the SCOTUS did. Go read the opinion.

I'll bet you'll want a fair trial if you're ever accused of something you haven't done.

There's this thing called "wikipedia". Maybe you've heard of it.

Get over your brainfreeze and use the spoon for its intended purpose instead of trying to get people to feed you with it.

One would think that being locked up in a piece of furniture would be more cruel and unusual than anything they're experiencing at Club GITMO.

Is the Geneva convention only applied on the battlefield? lol

Don't laugh at those pics unless you were the one taking the picture, or in the hood.
