Okay then, so if the Administration loses in the USSC, then they can go to Congress and
ask for a General Court-Martial for any captured members of Al-Queda held by the U.S.
military, if that's what you're saying? They still are not POWs-AQ never signed Geneva and
they sure don't act like they ever heard of it, nor do its members meet the basic Geneva
standard for POWs (uniforms, chain of command, openly carrying weapons, and following the
laws and customs of war). All right, give 'em an Article 5 hearing, and if they are not
determined to be POWs, remand them for General Court-Martial.(or military tribunal if the
Supreme Court holds that tribunals are permissible). Seems what Vince and other "liberals"
want is to treat AQ members as POWs when they don't qualify. What I'd like to know is why.
