I agree. We always called the other side UNLESS they were a bona fide government staight up criminals and treated them as such. The dividing line was uniforms, formations, and rank structure. But there is no difference between, to expand the previous statement murder for hire, murder for profit as to motive OR type of weapon. Otherwise murder by WMD in one particular case would automatically calls for a trip to Gitmo and a court martial and a firing squad. The one case I'm referring to is murder by drugs. Can't have it both ways. If they want to be treated as a special class they have to take the punishment that goeswith that type of crime. Still a crime though Clancy always wrote it's mugging or murder writ large.

Second The civil laws of each country running the detention centers for Prisoners of War with allied forces involved does not apply it's laws t the prisoners of war. That would be Law of Land Warfare and other like treaties. Treating the Gitmo prisoners as jay walkers is faintly ridiculous - unless they are USA citizens. Maybe ACLU and Soros should figure out the A stands For American. but then that concept is far beyond the capability of either one.
