Therefore one would assume that this desire would help him to end the war. Yet if that were true, he would not have pushed so hard for the institution of the Strategic Defence Initiative, a project that dealt directly with nuclear weaponry. Past presidents had mostly used détente as a means of…

    Georges Clemenceau once said “war is too important to be left to the generals.” In Dr. Strangelove, Col. Ripper remarks that now “war is too important to be left to the politicians. They have neither the time, the training, nor the inclination for strategic thought” but Kubrick’s message implies that war is too important to be left to anybody at all. So with the persistence of nuclear technology as weapons of mass destruction, the question arises: Do we, as decision-makers, have the restraint not to use such weapons on one another? The question remains unanswered, but if there is to be peace, we must remain cautious and aware of their implications. Nuclear technology gives humanity an incredible opportunity to move forward, but if misused, it could send all life on earth back to the stone…

    The Fourth Geneva Convention was adopted in 1949, and it outlines a set of rules that concern the humanitarian protection for civilians in a war zone, and also outlaws the practice of a total war. It is considered as an improvement over the Hague Convention IV on the Law and Customs of War on Land, 1907. By virtue of Article 4 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, the application of this convention is limited to those people, who, at a given moment and in any manner, find themselves, in case of a conflict or occupation, in the hands of a party to the conflict or occupying power of which they are not nationals. Article 6 further explains that this Convention will come into operation immediately following the outbreak of hostilities, or at the start…
