If a muslim from Tripoli had dressed himself up as a colonial and blew himself up with the intention to kill women and children, there would have been no due process. His partners in crime, if still in the US, would have been tortured to find information about other conspirators and they would have all been shot.

A soldier in a foreign army in uniform is one thing. But they killed spies right on sight (Washington hung Beneditct Arnold's coconspirator right when they caught him). And that is a spy that was not out to kill women and children. A spy (somone dressed in civilian clothes) out to kill women and children would have not received any mercy or any rights from the colonials. Escpecially if he was a religious fanatic.
Were we signatories to the Geneva Convention then?
