Which of the following is true about the U.S. government and the Defense Department?A、They refused to obey the Supreme Court.
B、They were very satisfied with what they did.
C、They always obeyed the Geneva Conventions.
D、They ignored the Geneva Conventions for years.
【正确答案】：D
【题目解析】：题目问的是以下关于美国政府和国防部的说法哪个是对的。根据第一段的It was a real step forward for an administration that tossed aside the Geneva rules years ago and then tried to place itself beyond the reach of the courts..可知，对于一个将日内瓦公约扔在一旁数年不理，然后有想凌驾于法院之上的政府来说，能迈出这一步是一个进步。因此选择D. They ignored the Geneva Conventions for years.（他们忽视日内瓦公约很多年了）。
