Thinking through the laws of war

After the intellectual sputum coughed up by the Gazette editorial the other day, I found this considered and insightful Citizen editorial quite encouraging.

I'd excerpt it, but I can't figure out which passage is most worthy - you should read the whole thing.

Darts when they get it wrong, and laurels when they get it right.

An idea a friend of mine expressed today: if the Talib was clearly dying a miserable death, that could not be avoided, surely a coup de grĂ¢ce was the humane thing to do.

How perfect a world do we want our forces to operate in?
