To those like you, perhaps it is absolutely meaningless rhetoric. To OURS who depend on it being followed:
Geneva Conventions Treaty
Article 3 states that even where there is not a conflict of international character the parties must as a minimum adhere to minimal protections described as: noncombatants, members of armed forces who have laid down their arms, and combatants who are hors de combat (out of the fight) due to wounds, detention, or any other cause shall in all circumstances be treated humanely, with the following prohibitions:
(a) violence to life and person, in particular murder of all kinds, mutilation, cruel treatment and torture;
(b) taking of hostages;
(c) outrages upon personal dignity, in particular humiliating and degrading treatment
(d) the passing of sentences and the carrying out of executions without previous judgment pronounced by a regularly constituted court, affording all the judicial guarantees which are recognized as indispensable by civilized peoples. Fourth Geneva Convention - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
TORTURE IS ILLEGAL. It isn't limited to uniformed combatants. It includes every human being in the world. You people that would turn this country into some kind of fascist banana republic need to just come clean and denounce freedom and morality.
The Geneva Convention doesn't apply to non-uniformed combatants. They also do not apply to nations that have not signed onto them. The conventions are intented as an incentive for BOTH SIDES to follow them, not just one of them which the liberals assume.
I'm calling your BULL....Lonestar
you are SIMPLY INCORRECT about the Geneva convention and it being for ONLY when both parties have signed it...YOU OBVIOUSLY have not read it. And you are wrong.
The Geneva convention addresses and describes how a signing country should handle the treatment of people out of uniform and countries that have not signed, as well as procedures and agreements for those who have signed it.

Medical Definition of Torture
Torture: An act by which severe pain or suffering, whether physical or mental, is intentionally inflicted on a person, for a purpose such as obtaining information or a confession, punishment, intimidation or coercion, or for any reason based on discrimination of any kind. Survivors of torture often suffer from physical and psychological symptoms and disabilities. There may be specific forms of physical injury including broken bones, neurological damage, and musculoskeletal problems. Torture may results in psychological symptoms of depression (most common), post-traumatic stress disorder, marked sleep disturbances and alterations in self-perceptions together with feelings of powerlessness, fear, guilt and shame

We are talking about terrorist right? And whether or not the Geneva Convention applies to them. And you quoted from the 3rd Convention which covers prisoners of war and says they must be protected from harm and not prosecuted for lawful actions on the battlefield. The problem with that is the conventions outlaw any attack directed solely or mainly at civilians, which is what al-Qaeda specialises in. And to gain POW status, combatants have to follow the conventions. One idea would be that an international terrorist ignoring such rules of war might be liable to detention without having the full protection of POW status. However, the detainees held by the U.S. were and are treated in accordance with the "principles" of the Third Convention and other humanitarian law.
This is a breakdown on the four conventions, which were signed in 1949, with two additional protocols in 1977.
The First Convention was a follow-up to the 1864 agreement and protects sick and wounded soldiers.
The Second Convention extends protection to those fighting at sea.
The Third Convention covers prisoners of war and says they must be protected from harm and not prosecuted for lawful actions on the battlefield.
The Fourth Convention was new in 1949 and, drawing on the experience of civilian suffering in World War II, stated that civilians must not be deliberately targeted.
are you saying the North Vietnamese ever gave a shit about the GC's?I'm calling your BULL....Lonestar

There was a North Vietnamese adviser like minded to you who found holes in the letter of the Geneva Conventions to justify torturing American POW's. Talk to John McCain.
Evil people find justification to do evil things.
Are you saying you want the U.S. to be just like North Vietnam??????????are you saying the North Vietnamese ever gave a shit about the GC's?

torture is fine IF you want the U.S. to be just another rogue nation.
Personally, I have a better vision for the U.S.

One more thing we can thank president Obama for .... unfortunately - we did under the Bush administration.Thankfully, we don't engage in torture.

I know we DID engage in torture - I'd accuse you of lying but that requires deliberation - something you don't appear to be capable of.
Later punk - you've earned your way onto my ignore list - I don't trifle with those of your ilk
