Sorry, but this is inaccurate. The Geneva Conventions state that if there is any doubt as to whether prisoners are legitimate prisoners of war, a fair and competent tribunal must be convened to assess their status. Many of the inmates in Guantanamo have not been given anything remotely like a fair and competent tribunal. This is a violation of the Geneva Conventions.
