I'm sorry, but that is no reason to abuse, rape, and murder the prisonerss. As for "war is not a time to try to explain it," I'm sure many bad regimes used the same reason. Like Hussein saying that by him gassing the Iranian during the Iran-Iraq war is soemthing civilians wouldn't understand.
Here is the bottom line, the accused have been accused of violating the law according to military justice. the military justice knows no time when it is not relevant.
