High time the Geneva convention was updated; should include the ban of propagation of images, videos etc by mass media outlets or ban the access of the mass media outlets to PoWs .. partisan or not. Its equally wrong for CNN or MSNBC to use pictures of surrendering Iraqis (PoWs) as it is for Al Jazeera.
