Whether Al Qaeda is a part of the Geneva Convention or not is also irrelevent, as the United States has entered into other pacts that agree to adhere to basic human rights. Never mind that adhering to basic human rights is the right and moral thing to do, the very fact that we chose to break these pacts (and then tried to justify it) makes everyone who is a United States citizen a liar and a hypocrit. I do not like my representatives to make me out a liar.
Wrong. The Geneva Convention clearly states who qualifies, and who doesn't. They don't..now..this also shows youen't READ the GC..you do know that it states that ALL Prisoners can be held until the cessation of hostilities??
