I didn't see any "rule" following when those bastartds were cutting heads off...or hanging slain American contractors from a bridge.
Personally i think it's time to dull our butterknives & saw a few heads off on film...Lets see the reaction to that.

In regards to the USA changing the Arab/Muslim mentalty and culture.
as for geneva conventions, as Kaiser Wilheilm was proported to say "it is only a scrap of paper.."
It is only as good as the countries signed on the dotted line, or by those who use it to do their own Privateering in enforcement.
My prediction, the Occidental world will fail most miserably to change the Arab/Muslim mentality. They may change their music, chlothes, and ride a harley...but the fundemental philosophy will remain.
The USA will tire of the G-War when A) Iraq runs well past peak B) Suadi is in trouble (annother G-war waiting in the works), C) The USA economy can no longer support a war, maybe because Carabean banks buying USA debt reveal their "investors"... maybe because of the switch to Euro... D) Iran really does turn the conflict nuclear, and the petroelum is inacessible.

.Hello it gets cold as hell in Iran. I suspect it will quickly become very popular for central heating... Or they could always use the waste hest from thier nuke plant

I think vehicle fuel is the only acceptable use for natural gas. All other uses are wasteful, as perfectly useful, economic alternatives exist both for electricity generation and heating
