'treachery' card for the soldiers dressing up like civilians ...

'SPY' is the definition here... armed spies in this case. It used to be that they could be taken out and shot when caught. But they probably get trials now.

Afghanistan is a wee bit fifferent... terrorists are CRIMINALS not soldiers by definition so the Geneva convention doesn't quite fit right. I think that is how they are being looked at.
