Actually they have violated many laws and customs of war, and cannot be considered POWs under current guidelines. If you want them to be considered POWs you would need to rewrite a number of guidelines. The ones you pointed out are part, but the rules go well beyond that.

For example, if I am captured I should be treated as a POW and protected under guidelines set by the geneva convention. But if I attempt an excape, and kill a guard in the process I am no longer protected by the geneva convention, no longer a POW, and now a criminal and able to be tried, imprisoned, and executed for murder. But as it stands, and due to terrorist groups open actions, they gave up their POW status (which they were never qualified for in the first place) long ago.

And on a side note... some pussies describe sleep deprevation as torture. You wanna talk about torture I can get you in contact with my best friends dad who spent 6 years in the Hanoi Hilton..
