Geneva Loophole: Doesn't Apply to CIA-run Prisons

You knew there had to be an out:

The White House is insulting your intelligence if it expects you to believe that its new policy of extending Geneva Conventions protections to all detainees in U.S. military custody is sufficient to redress the proven abuse and illegality of its war on terror. The very obvious loophole is what will happen to detainees outside of U.S. military custody–as in CIA custody, such as the so-called “black sites,” where Geneva is a sick joke. Which is a fairly apt description of this new White House attempt at damage control.
