I guess you could make the assertation that illegal combatant is a result of Geneva in how it defines legal combatants. When you have a person fighting in a warzone, outside their own sovereignity (such as Al Qeada), without proper declaration, without proper definition of a uniform or combat distingushment, you have an illegal combatant. Geneva clearly states all of that is illegal. Don't try and make a case of simple semantics, you won't win.
