Read it here.
Those who remain in detention - a tiny fraction of the 10,000 enemycombatants we have picked up over the past few years - are terroristtrainers, bomb makers, extremist recruiters and financers, bodyguards ofOsama bin Laden, would-be suicide bombers, and so forth. Because theyindiscriminately target civilians and are not fighting for anotherparticular country, among other reasons, these individuals do notqualify for the protections of the Geneva Conventions. Nonetheless,official U.S. policy is to apply Geneva standards, including access tolawyers, Red Cross visits, and so forth. Every single detainee receivesa new review every year to determine whether he still poses a risk. Thatwould seem to be a reasonable standard for a country at war, and surelya credible "plan" for "handling" their cases.
