    Will probably be tried in the US or sent to GITMO. They were stripped of their UK nationality so Britain is unlikely to intervene or offer diplomatic counsel.

    Oh dear how sad, what a shame, ach well, never mind.

    The Kurds will fry their eyes and give them a long slow horrible death.

    Given your insane ramblings about Innocent Ched, I find it difficult to side with you on issues like this.

    IMHO I think these gentlemen need rehabilitated and allowed to resume their civilian life in the UK, but obviously with the same kind of stringent privacy that we have extended to other misunderstood Brits, like Jon Venables, and recent success stories such as Karen Matthews and Maxine Carr.

    These ****s, allegedly, are responsible for the torture and execution of about 20 people. They used to do mock executions on their poor victims before doing them for real.

    I'd be very suprised if these paira ****s are handed over to the UK or the US. We are not well liked by the Kurds mainly because we have left them in the shìt time and time again. They have been instrumental in defeating ISIS whilst the Turks and most of the Arabs funded the ****s.

    To be honest, if Dev says someone is guilty then you can pretty much be certain they'll walk free in a few months time.

    Well it looks as if they are going away for the rest of their lives because I never said anything about "Guilt".

    Is the term "prisoners of war" redundant now,seeing as everyone we capture is now deemed a terrorist?

    Also they may not be classed as POWs under the 3rd Geneva Convention. Game's a bogey.

    • Article 4 defines prisoners of war to include:
      • 4.1.1 Members of the armed forces of a Party to the conflict and members of militias of such armed forces
      • 4.1.2 Members of other militias and members of other volunteer corps, including those of organised resistance movements, provided that they fulfill all of the following conditions:
        • that of being commanded by a person responsible for his subordinates;
        • that of having a fixed distinctive sign recognisable at a distance (there are limited exceptions to this among countries who observe the 1977 Protocol I);
        • that of carrying arms openly;
        • that of conducting their operations in accordance with the laws and customs of war.
      • 4.1.3 Members of regular armed forces who profess allegiance to a government or an authority not recognised by the Detaining Power.
      • 4.1.4 Civilians who have non-combat support roles with the military and who carry a valid identity card issued by the military they support.
      • 4.1.5 Merchant marine and the crews of civil aircraft of the Parties to the conflict, who do not benefit by more favourable treatment under any other provisions of international law.
      • 4.1.6 Inhabitants of a non-occupied territory, who on the approach of the enemy spontaneously take up arms to resist the invading forces, without having had time to form themselves into regular armed units, provided they carry arms openly and respect the laws and customs of war.
      • 4.3 makes explicit that Article 33 takes precedence for the treatment of medical personnel of the enemy and chaplains of the enemy.
    • Article 5 specifies that prisoners of war (as defined in article 4) are protected from the time of their capture until their final repatriation. It also specifies that when there is any doubt whether a combatant belongs to the categories in article 4, they should be treated as such until their status has been determined by a competent tribunal.
