Mr. Speaker, article 12 of the Geneva convention states, and I quote: “Prisoners of war may only be transferred by the Detaining Power to a Power which is a party to the Convention and after the Detaining Power has satisfied itself of the willingness and ability of such transferee Power to apply the Convention”.
The Americans argued publicly about what they were going to do with the prisoners, and he tells us today: “We know what they were going to do with them, so we are respecting the Geneva convention”.
Is that what he would have us think today? Does he take us for complete idiots?
