I think there is some sympathy ... (none / 0) (#96)

towards the people who are innocent but caught up in the whole thing (rounding up the wrong people ...).

However, for proven terrorists (for example, that have shot at US serviceman), I doubt there is much concern if the interrogation gets a little too "enthusiastic" (as long as we are not getting into hot iron category yet).

Having shot at US servicemen??? (none / 0) (#100)

That doesn't make a terrorist. It's a war zone.

People who shoot at US troops and are caught are POW's.

The definition of who is a POW is quite definitive.
Merely shooting at US soldier does not make one eligible to be considered a POW.
