Everyone understands what "using someone as a hostage" means, no one on earth says "using someone as a POW" for good reason. Please shush with this tiresome masturbatory semantic tut-tutting, it does not make you look nearly as clever as you think it does.

Good reason being that usa denies rights of combatants through this one weird trick, I’m very smart fedcobin writer aware of history and language (also who is ross perot?)
