Rescuing the law of war: a way forward in an era of global terrorism / Michael H Hoffman - 2005
"This article briefly surveys the existing law-of-war framework before examining the problems facing commanders and policymakers alike when they try to apply these rules in military operations against terrorist organizations. Identifies long term hazards presented by current legal trends, and follows with a look at valuable though forgotten law-of-war lessons from US history that must be relearned in order to refocus the rules of war from the challenge of terrorism."
