Thanks to Anselm Cramer, Jo Ann McNamara, Tom Izbicki, Jonathan Glenn and
Michael F Hynes. I will re-read Russell and read Keen.
My interest is the morality of war, not the legality of war. Yet those who
seek to justify war morally frequently make reference to the law of war. I
see now that this is unsurprising given the legalist approach of the Church
to the morality of war from the beginning, and given the roots of the
modern law of war in the Church's medieval efforts.
Thanks again,
Colm
