Sic Semper Tyrannis!
giving the fact we are only at a seize fire with North Korea and occupy their border I would say we are war with them . And I said people are bitching about the fact they did not get a fair trial, I never once gave my opinion on the subject.no we have jailed people with no trial at all and I never said it was journalist that we imprisoned did I.
And if you don't see the hyprocrisy that is your problem.
So you are saying that North Korea is in a war with us captured US journalists and jailed them without a fair trial?
Because we're having a war with the people that we are capturing. So if you are trying to make an apples to apples comparison, all the parties in your analogy need to stand in like stead to each other.
And if we want to seperate ourselves from the people we are at war with then yes we should give are prisoners of war a fair trial otherwise we are no better than who we are fighting.
That would be a "cease" fire. A seize fire would require corrective action and my be caused by excessive heating of the barrel during firing. As a matter of fact I haven't given my view on the women taken prisoner either.
So, your current claim is that there is no possible way to tell the difference between the United States of America and a group of thugs who routinely behead people unless we fairly try the ones of them that we capture.
That seems prima facie like a silly statement to me. But, let's poke it with a stick and see what happens.
"We should give are (sic) prisoners of war a fair trial"
Well, if a country we were at war with attempted to try our prisoners of war we would be fit to be tied and hell hath no fury! You don't try prisoners of war unless they committed a war crime of some sort.
"otherwise we are no better than those we are fighting"
To the contrary, you can't point to one single prisoner we've beheaded. (We'd have to be doing that to be "no better"). As far as what we are actually doing, if we keep prisoners in accordance with the Geneva Conventions for the duration of hostilities and never charge them with anything, then we are treating them as we would a POW.
Do you have a problem with that?
