[QUOTE="Jones, post: 169157, member: 4805"] Not surprisingy, you failed to put things in context. This from is Article 42: And this is from your opinion, to which I was refering: In other words, it not necessary to defeat/overthrow a government (that is just your [I]opinion[/I]), simply to occupy by military force territory which previously did not belong to you (that is the Hague). Syria's occupation in Lebanon is a good example of that. This is article 43: You really are beginning to make progress! I'm impressed :) This is essentially hand waving, but at least you're not claiming it somehow amounts to preconditions. Not too bad... Oh no! You're going the wrong way! Just can't seem to resist trying to add in things that aren't there :wink:. The most amusing thing about that statement is what happens if follow to it's logical conclusion, ie, that [B]anytime[/B] you endanger civilians you're in violation of International Law. Good stuff :thumbup1: See, now that's what I like to hear. You're giving a rationale for staying in Iraq that is actually defensible (if it wasn't, there wouldn't be any grounds for debate) on some level, without trying to invoke International Law. There's hope yet! Psst! Hey Canon....over here: [URL='https://web.archive.org/web/20090723082024/http://www.unhchr.ch/html/menu3/b/92.htm']Geneva Conventions[/URL] [URL='http://avalon.law.yale.edu/subject_menus/lawwar.asp']Hague Conventions[/URL] Take care :wink: [/QUOTE]
