I find it amusing that these should be threated as lawful combatans, due to their nature of fighting. They are not fighting a war against military targets, but a war to get attention and bring suffering to civilians.

the taleban were merely defending their country/regieme. don't get them mixed up with Al Qaeda. nevertheless, even the taleban should have been detained as POWs, until of course their involvement in other crimes became apparent, in which case they can be tried on those grounds.
