The correct treatment of prisoners
Just heard on the news here that following the revelations about torture of prisoners Bush and Co will be sending over to Iraq the guy who's been running Guantanamo Bay, to make sure that prisoners are treated properly. Well, that's a relief, as we all know how carefully peoples' rights have been observed down there.
Your government just seems to get dumber and dumber.

1. What an unfortunate moment to be taking a sip of coffee!
Just as I started to read your post! :nuke: (Actually, I caught the spray in time.)

2. I'm just wondering
how many soldiers refused to "play the game" and got transferred to the combat zone.

3. the correct treatment is not to hold them hostage in the first place
there is no "correct" way to hold the 30,000+ Iraqis hostage, so the question is moot.
