Charles Jannuzi: <<And perhaps the next time there is a prison riot in the US they'll know to use B-52s to put it down. What effectiveness! What bravery! Can't wait for the next exciting episode!>>

Prisoners who have laid down their arms are protected by the Geneva Convention. Those who are captured and take them up again, they are combatants. The absolutely logical response is to hit them back hard, so others don't get the same idea. Or, does the Geneva convention serve to calibrate the day-to-day operational decisions conducted during a war?
