What’s the fallacy where you accuse me of something I never said? Yeah, you just did that.
I never said the answer was easy. Nothing dealing with large groups of people and high emotions is easy. But there are better answers and worse answer. Bush chose the worst answer, and the rest of the US establishment went along for the ride.
That’s the spirit! Play the victim card! That’s another fallacy, right?
Ok, two problems here.
- who cares what they call it. They can call it whatever they want, as long as they stop doing it.
- you’ve sprinted straight back into the them-vs-us enemies-at-war quagmire. They are criminals. What they do is a crime. That’s it.
This is just fucking WRONG. There is no class of person that the Geneva Conventions deprives of protections. None. Not a one. Not a single one. The Geneva Conventions explicitly recognises that everyone gets protections.
Edit: I recall you vigorously defending torture back in December, so it’s no surprise you’re also clueless about the GCs.
