...these following issues involving those incarcerated at Camp X-Ray in Quantanamo Bay.

(1) Do terrorists fall under the protection of the Geneva Convention?

(2) Or, rephrasing the question, does
the Geneva Convention protect international criminals [felons] who take up military arms [Because the El Qaeda are criminals]?

(3) Do terrorists adhere to the Geneva Convention?

(4) Have terrorist groups signed onto and ratified the Geneva Convention?

(5) What does the Geneva Convention
say about imprisoned disarmed combatants
who are sworn to kill their captors, even in captivity?

The closest instance in the past 100 years that I can thing of where involuntary imprisoned combatants threatened their captors was in the Pacific Theater of War in WWII, when
fanatical Japanese soldiers who ended
up taken prisionr often took, or threatened to take, the lives of their Australian or Ameircan captors.
