I gave Law of Armed Conflict briefings to the troops for 30 years. The conflict I always had was that if only one side recognizes and obeys the rules, that side is at a tremendous disadvantage.

That’s a pretty good description of the consequences of government, too…

Rush used to say war was to kill people and break things.

I define war as ‘no more rules’.

Kind of like a street fight. Don’t put your thumb in his eyes, that is not fair. While he is trying to kill you.
