An armed terrorist from Syria is captured during a firefight with Marines in Afghanistan. Is the terrorist entitled to all the protections that are afforded to any American citizen who is being detained in a prison under control of the United States? Why or why not?

**ANSWER THIS QUESTION 250 WORDS MIN*** Discussion Questions: An armed terrorist from Syria is captured during a firefight with Marines in Afghanistan. Is the terrorist entitled to all the protections that are afforded to any American citizen who is being detained in a prison under control of the United States? Why or why not? **REPLY TO EACH POST 100 WORDS MIN EACH**1. The 9/11 attacks and the United States’ response have tested the U.S. Administration and its stance on humanitarian law. When it comes to issues pertaining to those captured in Afghanistan and how they should be classified and treated, the issue remains unresolved. While President Bush characterized the 9/11 attacks as acts of war, he promptly commenced a war on terror in self-defense (Sanders, n.d., p. 28). His administration later conferred prisoner of war status on the Taliban fighters and continued to classify the al Qaeda prisoners-captured fighting alongside the Taliban. Later, they were held with them in Guantanamo Bay-as “unlawful combatants.” Since then, there has been special attention given to the Geneva Conventions and the enforcement regime that grew alongside these legal instruments Sanders, n.d., p. 28). The treatment of prisoners of war under the Geneva Conventions after that created a controversy as the U.S. decided that Taliban and Al Qaeda fighters were unlawful combatants and thus not subject to the Geneva Convention’s prisoner of war (P. O. W) protections Sanders, n.d., p. 28). The U.S. also claimed that the U.S. President had the right to determine prisoners’ status and that prisoners had limited, if any, rights to challenge that classification Sanders, n.d., p. 29). The U.S. determined that any alleged terrorists would be tried before U.S. military tribunals. In response to international outcry the U.S. adjusted its position by saying that prisoners would receive almost all of the P. O. W. protections but would still be subjected to controversial forms of detention and interrogation. Therefore, the armed terrorist captured in Afghanistan would not b entitled to protections from the United States.2. “Historically, citizenship has been thought of as the relationship of an individual to a sovereign government, encompassing the obligations of each to the other. The citizen enjoyed the protection of the government and its laws in return for his allegiance and obedience to the laws. The relationship between the state and aliens, on the other hand, was defined more in terms of obligations between the state and the alien’s home state.” (Elsea, 2014) The laws and safeguards granted to American citizens amount to a social contract between the citizens and the government. Extending this contract to individuals from other countries in times of war, does not automatically afford the individuals captured to the same protections. Terrorists operating in foreign countries that are captured by the U.S. are not treated as citizens of the U.S., they are considered “enemy combatants”. (Americanbar.org, 2020) In this scenario, the terrorist that was captured was not from Afghanistan, and so they would not be placed into the custody of the Afghan government. As the terrorists is considered an enemy combatant, they can be detained without due process afforded to U.S. citizens. This leaves our Geneva Convention, and Human Rights obligations as the primary source of our treatment of enemy combatants which do not state that enemy combatants be given the same protections afforded to American citizens. Our obligations to foreign nationals engaged in active warfare with us overseas are outlined in international rather than domestic laws. America is obligated to “the protection against arbitrary deprivation of life” (OUNHCHR, 2008), but that does not grant any of the other freedoms and protections given to Americans. We cannot kill someone who was captured, but at the same time, we do not have to give them the full due process afforded to our own citizens.

Explain how you would evaluate whether the efforts to improve the health concern were effective.

Discussion Question:Please review the course objectives stated in the Syllabus. Conduct a self-reflection of your learning in the course and how you personally have met each of the course objectives.Your initial posting should be 400 words in length and utilize at least one scholarly source other than the textbook. Course Learning Objectives:After this course, you will be able to:Apply a knowledge base of community health nursing and health teaching skills to the development an educational project with a focus on illness prevention, health promotion and/or health maintenance of individuals, families and groups.Demonstrate use of information technology in data gathering and analysis of a community or a specific population group.Analyze a community assessment to plan a health teaching project that meets the needs of communities and populationsCreate an educational project that can be utilized by public and community health nurses to improve the health status and eliminate health disparities of individuals, families, communities and populations.Implement the planned teaching project to the selected target population.Collaborate with community partners to provide education designed to improve population health.Record and present evidence of the completion of each phase of the teaching projectAssignment:SummaryBriefly summarize your project: How was the assessment completed? Who was your target audience and how many were in the audience? What was your topic? How did you determine what your topic should be (justification)? How did you advertise your presentation? What educational materials did you use or provide to the audience? (Provide ID of yourself and action picture for proof.)FYI: my coworker were my audience, it was 5 of them.I did a poster board on Mental healthEvaluationExplain how you would evaluate whether the efforts to improve the health concern were effective. Include in your explanation the tools you might use to do this evaluation. Also, critically appraise your performance of the activity/project for this population. How did the population respond? What aspects were you most satisfied/least satisfied with? What went well (at least 3 things)? What changes would you make in the future (at least 2 things)? ConclusionFor nurses, reflection is integral to higher-level thinking. You should be able to critically analyze scenarios and possible outcomes as opposed to simply asking the right questions. Acute perception of the entire situation will be obtained because you are open to dealing with the contradictions that may challenge your initial bias. Reflect on how your perspective of the community’s health and the national, state, and local efforts toward a healthier population has changed as a result of your fieldwork. Discuss the health of the target community population compared to national, state, local health findings. Discuss how the interventions used would impact at the local, state, and national level (include information on your chosen Healthy People 2020 goals). Finally, what impact did your project have on your target population?
