More "Hmmm"

If we get all bent out of whack because Iraqis show American and/or British POWs on Iraqi TV (because it violates certain terms of the Geneva Convention), why are we showing Iraqi POW's faces on American TV? No, we don't do it all the time, and sometimes, it shows pictures of Iraqi soldiers in the act of surrendering (not technically POWs at that point, I suppose would be the media's rationale), but I just saw a video of an army guy interviewing a captured Iraqi soldier, getting information from him and stuff... they were both all smiley and happy and everything, but still... what's the dilly-o?
