Did the US violate the Geneva Convention?

I'm curious what people think of showing the bodies of Sadaam's sons on TV. Seems hypocritical to me that the US went nuts about showing US POWs on TV, then they go and show these bodies with the shit shot out of them.

Saddams sons where killed, and not POW's

The geneva convention is for the treatment of POW's. BAM SUCK ON THAT ONE.

Geneva Convention

No.

The Geneva Convention only prohibits the photographing of prisoners of war for propaganda. The Hussiens were dead. No violation.

Showing pictures like that is part of the Middle East political culture. They expect to see shit like this. The US is trying to play by thier rules. Except we have a hard time getting it right and the US gets shit about it either way.

Ahh, I completely forgot about that. And BTW, I'm American and very pro-America (although not everything they do), it was just a thought that popped into my head. Forgot it only applied to POWs.

United States tells the world to respect the international laws and at the same time violates them, sounds contradictory to me.
