State Department memo on treatment of detainees in Iraq during the U.S. occupation. This is a talking points memo to address concerns and questions about the U.S. role, commitment and treatment of certain persons in accordance with international law and the Geneva Convention. It states that: 1) during combat operations, U.S. forces captured and held enemy prisoners of war (EPWs). These EPWs have been treated in accordance with the Geneva Convention Relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War (GPW); 2) the abuse of internees has been a matter of great concern to President Bush, who has said that the abuses are "abhorrent." 3) service members involved in the abuse has been taken to a Special Court-Martial proceeding; 4) juvenile security internees are segregated from the adult population of detainees. In addition, juvenile cases are rapidly reviewed by the Standing Review Board to determine whether continued detention is necessary; and 4) female security internees are segregated from the male detainee population, for their safety and privacy, and all females have been reviewed by the Security Internee Review and Appeal Board.
