I have answered every question you have asked with detailed examples and references to the relevant sections of the treaty being discussed.

You have given me nothing but petulance and uninformed nonsense.

- You think that a person who has been caught firing on invading armed forces should be labelled a "terrorist". That is just complete rubbish and demonstrates a profound lack of ability in even the most basic of English comprehension.

- You have made arguements about the Geneva Conventions which fully demonstrate your complete ignorance of even the most basic provisions of that document.

- You continue with your incorrect assumption that there is some sort of legal basis for the detentions without charge at Guantanamo Bay - yet when question on this several times, you cannot provide reference to any legal statute or precedent that provides this legal basis.

- You have told me that my citing of Article 17 of the Third Geneva Convention as an example of how the USA have violated the Geneva Convention "borders on silliness". Yet you cannot explain why this is so. Why is it that the use of coercive interrogation in prisoners who have a legal right not to undergo coercive interrogation is justified? Why does my suggestion that it isn't "border on silliness"?


And why is it that the opinion of a non-American is irrelevant to you? (apart from the obvious fact that the opinion of this non-American has exposed your gross ignorance of the subject).

THe USA is holding non-Americans illegally at Guantanamo Bay. Many non-Americans are also bound by the provisions of the Geneva Conventions - the treaty that the USA has not complied with.

So, why is it that you feel that the opinion of a non-American on this matter is irrelevant, and again, perhaps you could give an example of where I manipulated facts to a preconceived conclusion?

Or have you realised that you have been proven to be completely wrong on almost everything you have said, and so you just going to tell one last lie and run away?
