How can yoy be so sure that his plays are "under the guise of religion"? The man is fighting for his country, I mean come on if a foreign force was occupying your country would you just sit back and let it happen? I know what I'd be doing and sitting down would not fit the equation. Of course in your eyes he is an outright criminal because he is opposing your army, but is he a criminal, POW, or this new catageory that I still don't recognise "Unlawful Combatant"?
