Dlatego że cywilizacje zachodnie mają aspiracje do
praworządności, dlatego że istnieje prawo które jest wynikiem ewolucji i próbą
odzwierciedlenia wartości etycznych - dlatego nawet najwięksi zbrodniarze i ci
najmniejsi powinni prawu podlegać. Trzeba być konsekwentnym. Ja nie darzę
terrorystów miłością, ale to nie znaczy że będę popierać bezprawne szykany
wobec tychże - tym ludzim powinny przysługiwac takie prawa jakie przysługują
wszelkim innym ( w ich sytuacji ) a ta sytuacja wcale nie jest taka jasna i
jednoznaczna. w mojej opinii USA wcale nie musi traktować ich jako jeńców
wojennych z conajmniej dwóch powodów:

1) USA nie wypowiedziało wojny - formalne wypowiedzenie wojny jest dokonywane
przez kongress, to zaś się nie stało

2) Członkowie Al-Quaid'y nie nosza mundurów, nie noszą odznak, nie identyfikują
się jako jednostka zbrojna, nie obchodzą ich tzw. laws of war

- przeto, zgodnie z konwencją Genewską, nie można ich kwalifikowac
jako jeńców wojennych tylko jako pospolitych bandytów. Oczywiście bandyci też
maja jakieś prawa - lecz - i to jest istotne - konwencja ich nie
chroni..
Dla zagorzałych obrońców Al Quaid'y załączam

"Convention (III) relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War. Geneva, 12
August 1949.



Art 4. A. Prisoners of war, in the sense of the present Convention, are
persons belonging to one of the following categories, who have fallen into the
power of the enemy:
(1) Members of the armed forces of a Party to the conflict, as well as members
of militias or volunteer corps forming part of such armed forces.

(2) Members of other militias and members of other volunteer corps, including
those of organized resistance movements, belonging to a Party to the conflict
and operating in or outside their own territory, even if this territory is
occupied, provided that such militias or volunteer corps, including such
organized resistance movements, fulfil the following conditions:[
(a) that of being commanded by a person responsible for his subordinates;
(b) that of having a fixed distinctive sign recognizable at a distance;
(c) that of carrying arms openly;
(d) that of conducting their operations in accordance with the laws and customs
of war.

(3) Members of regular armed forces who profess allegiance to a government or
an authority not recognized by the Detaining Power.

(4) Persons who accompany the armed forces without actually being members
thereof, such as civilian members of military aircraft crews, war
correspondents, supply contractors, members of labour units or of services
responsible for the welfare of the armed forces, provided that they have
received authorization, from the armed forces which they accompany, who shall
provide them for that purpose with an identity card similar to the annexed
model.

(5) Members of crews, including masters, pilots and apprentices, of the
merchant marine and the crews of civil aircraft of the Parties to the conflict,
who do not benefit by more favourable treatment under any other provisions of
international law.

(6) Inhabitants of a non-occupied territory, who on the approach of the enemy
spontaneously take up arms to resist the invading forces, without having had
time to form themselves into regular armed units, provided they carry arms
openly and respect the laws and customs of war.

B. The following shall likewise be treated as prisoners of war under the
present Convention:
(1) Persons belonging, or having belonged, to the armed forces of the occupied
country, if the occupying Power considers it necessary by reason of such
allegiance to intern them, even though it has originally liberated them while
hostilities were going on outside the territory it occupies, in particular
where such persons have made an unsuccessful attempt to rejoin the armed forces
to which they belong and which are engaged in combat, or where they fail to
comply with a summons made to them with a view to internment.

(2) The persons belonging to one of the categories enumerated in the present
Article, who have been received by neutral or non-belligerent Powers on their
territory and whom these Powers are required to intern under international law,
without prejudice to any more favourable treatment which these Powers may
choose to give and with the exception of Articles 8, 10, 15, 30, fifth
paragraph, 58-67, 92, 126 and, where diplomatic relations exist between the
Parties to the conflict and the neutral or non-belligerent Power concerned,
those Articles concerning the Protecting Power. Where such diplomatic relations
exist, the Parties to a conflict on whom these persons depend shall be allowed
to perform towards them the functions of a Protecting Power as provided in the
present Convention, without prejudice to the functions which these Parties
normally exercise in conformity with diplomatic and consular usage and treaties.
