I could point you to volumes that show just how wrong you are, but it would only be a waste of my time because wouldn't read the evidence anyways. You think you know everything.....what with your years of law enforcement, intelligence, and military experience.

I can show you volumes that say the boogey man is real. So what? I got bad news for you... its news you still refuse to accept. You have an enemy. This enemy not only wants YOU dead.. he wants your wife, your kids, your parents and everyone you know dead.
And guess what? he's willing to die to make sure that happens. What do your "volumes" of books say about this?
Oh.. nothing?

Yes I was in the military, and the first thing they taught us when dealing with prisoners, is that you have to follow the Geneva convention. Not just because it's the law, but because if you don't you put our prisoners at risk.

You're right. I agree with you. Radical fundamentalists haven't been chopping off anyone's heads. They haven't been blowing up markets full of people. They haven't been attacking women and children. They are all about respecting the law and the Geneva Conventions.
I bet US and NATO soldiers get captured by the Taliban or Al Queda and just feel a nice sense of relief that they have nothing to worry about. The Taliban rounds US/NATO soldiers up and just passes out cotton candy and teddy bears.
What you were told as an enlisted grunt working in the mail room, has nothing to do with fighting Islamic extremism in the year 2009.

If captured SS soldiers were entitled to their rights under the Geneva convention, then so are captured Al Qaeda. It's not about who they are, it's about who we are, you stupid fuck.

Times have changed. who we are... are simplistic, idealistic pussies who let these people keep building and planning and training until they could pull off a pretty spectacular terrorist attack. Thats who we are.
The events leading up to 9/11 and the attempts at arresting Bin Laden are rock solid proof of that. That following the law not only put people at risk... it caused the death of countless people across the globe.
The Geneva Conventions are predicated on a couple simple principles... that both sides of the war want to live and that both sides are going to abide by it. You can't treat this situation as if this is two uniformed armies fighting each other for a bridge outside of Munich or some shit.

Sorry to make you have a melt down.
Hopefully, you'll be lucky enough to get captured by the Taliban one day so you can be treated like gold and be fed grapes and have your little wiener sucked by virgins all day long.
