this may apply in a lawless land; silly me: i thought the law meant something to people who say bush declared an illegal war.

Point B - So point me to a law (convention, statute, even precedent will work in a pinch) that says civilians in war zone need take part in the conflict. I kind of thought NOT taking part was what made them civilians... silly me.

staged & published = propaganda, right?
staged & published = staged & published

I'll offer several options, and guess what? In none of them has anything illegal or what could be considered the actions of an enemby combatantoccured.
1) It's a glimpse of the insurgents we wouldn't otherwise have, and even knowing that it's staged (or especially knowing that it's staged) it's helpful to our side too.
2) It facilitated his infiltration into the insurgency and capture of other photos/materials that have a purer journalistic intent and may even help out our side more.
3) He's buddy buddy with the insurgents and idealogically supports their cause(s). He takes pictures. He is not giving orders, he is not pulling triggers, he's not lighting fuses. Explain again how that makes him an enemy combatant?

I know you'd like #3 to be the case, but you have no evidence that it is any more likely than #1 or #2, and even if it were the only option you STILL don't have a case for imprisonment.

and that's where i'd like to put this thread.
right square up your......
After seeing Deliverance, I firmly believe you'd be the best one to ask about shoving things up asses, yup. I supposed you have to use your penis augmenting handgun for this though, right? Do you have assume the weaver stance for that?

By the way, are you perhaps related to the banjo kid? It would certainly explain a lot....

Sorry for all of the questions, I'm not well versed in the ways of the redneck south.

Oh and edit: US Military; still pathetic.

Tomlin said the defense for Hussein is being forced to work "totally in the dark."
Yeah, he's got a shot at winning. We set a great example to the rest of the world.
