I am still not sure... Check out this title:

"Bush's "anti-torture" Executive Order authorizes torture"
http://pressesc.com/news/75022072007/bushs-anti-torture-executive-order-authorizes-torture

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070720-4.html

of al Qaeda, the Taliban, and associated forces are unlawful enemy
combatants who are not entitled to the protections that the Third
Geneva Convention provides to prisoners of war. I hereby reaffirm that
determination.
