America is a nation at war. In prosecuting this war, enemies are
captured and held. Do these enemies deserve the protections and
privileges of the Geneva Conventions, or not? If not, how are they
to be treated? What is allowed? What protections can be waived?
Which are basic human rights? The guidance provided to the troops
on the ground is confusing, to say the least. Rather than abiding
by existing military doctrine and training, there is a loosening of
the rules. Instead of mandating all detainees be treated in
accordance with the Geneva Conventions, senior leaders are
stressing humane treatment.
