The protections for POWs in the Geneva conventions where written for actual soldiers, who put their lives on the line for their countries and people. Not for cowards hiding behind a screen, using pseudo-kamikaze tactics.
Drone pilots should be treated as unlawful combatants, to be indefinitely detained or worse if necessary. There is even a good legal justification for this. They don't technically wear uniforms when engaged in hostilities.
