  abstract: Provides an overview of the War Crimes Act of 1996, which outlines penalties for violations of the Geneva Conventions committed by or against U.S. nationals or armed service members. Discusses implications of Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, whereby the Supreme Court rejected Bush Administration claims that Geneva Conventions Common Article 3 was inapplicable to the treatment of Al Qaeda detainees by U.S. personnel; reviews amendments made to the War Crimes Act by P.L. 109-366, the Military Commissions Act of 2006; and summarizes recent legislative developments.
