As far as I see it now an illegal combatant is someone who goes to another country to defend his ideals that are attacked by someone elses ideas. Just like 1000's of people did from all over the world in WW1, the war against fascisme in Spain, WW2 and Korea. I can remember one of my all time favourite authors (Hemmingway) fighting in Spain as an American citizen as well as Dutch, Brittish and many other nations alike.
No I am not saying these guys were terrorists (before some go mental on me), but there are several cases where citizens of countries went to fight abroad without concent of their government. Should they loose their rights as well?
