Bush wants humane treatment

President George W Bush warned Iraqis on Sunday they would be tried for war crimes if they abused prisoners after Iraq displayed five captured US soldiers and several bloodied corpses on television.
"The POWs I expect to be treated humanely, just like we're treating the prisoners that we have captured humanely. If not, the people who mistreat the prisoners will be treated as war criminals," Bush told reporters.
Bush also cautioned Americans that US and British forces faced a stiff battle to topple President Saddam Hussein.
"I can assure the American people that we're making good progress, and also can assure them that this is just the beginning of a tough fight," Bush said on his return to the White House from the Camp David presidential retreat.
Air Force Gen. Richard Myers, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and a member of Bush's war council, said stiffer opposition awaited US forces as they neared Baghdad and the more disciplined units of Saddam's Republican Guard.
"Anybody that thinks this is going to be quick and easy is wrong," Myers told "Fox News Sunday.
US Central Command headquarters in Qatar said ground forces had met their toughest resistance yet on Sunday after rolling largely unopposed through the sands of southern Iraq since Thursday to within 160 km of the capital.
They reported "less than 10" Marines killed in fighting near the southern city of Nassiriya and said 12 US service members were missing after an Iraqi ambush in the same area.
Iraqi television filmed five shaken US soldiers -- one an injured woman -- and the bloodied bodies of up to eight uniformed men, all apparently captured or killed southeast of Nassiriya. At least two of the dead had wounds to the head.
The footage of the first known US prisoners of war in the conflict
included brief interviews with the five and was relayed around much of the world by Arabic network AlJazeera.
Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld called the video Iraqi propaganda and said it violated the Geneva Convention governing the treatment of prisoners of war.
"Needless to say, television networks that carry such pictures are, I would say, doing something that's unfortunate," Rumsfeld told CNN.
US television networks either showed only very brief excerpts of the footage on Sunday or said they were still considering whether to air it and under what conditions.
'Get my son out'
Anecita Hudson said she had recognised her 23-year-old son Joseph Hudson from footage aired on a satellite channel she subscribes to. "I cannot imagine how he became a prisoner of war like this," she told ABC News, weeping for his plight. "I just hope the president will do something to get my son out."
The Geneva Convention requires the humane treatment of POWs and states that they must be protected against "violence or intimidation and against insults and public curiosity."
Rumsfeld told CBS's "Face the Nation" that photographing prisoners was also not allowed under the convention. US and other Western media have given wide play to images of Iraqi soldiers, sometimes shown in humiliating positions, surrendering to US and British forces.
