Military Strategy: the Blind Spot of International Humanitarian Law
Harvard National Security Journal / Vol. 8 333 ARTICLE Military Strategy: The Blind Spot of International Humanitarian Law Yishai Beer* * Professor of Law, Herzliya Interdisciplinary Center, Herzliya, Israel. The author would like to thank Eyal Benvenisti, Gabriella Blum, Moshe Halbertal, Eliav Lieblich, David Kretzmer, and Kenneth Watkin for their useful comments, and Ohad Abrahami for his research assistance. © 2017 by the President and Fellows of Harvard College and Yishai Beer. 334 2017 / Military Strategy: The Blind Spot of International Humanitarian Law Abstract The stated agenda of international humanitarian law (IHL) is to humanize war’s arena. Since it is the strategic level of war that primarily affects war’s conduct, one might have expected that the law would focus upon it. Paradoxically, the current law generally ignores the strategic discourse and prefers to scrutinize the conduct of war through a tactical lens. This disregard of military strategy has a price that is demonstrated in the prevailing law of targeting. This Article challenges the current blind spot of IHL: its disregard of the direct consequences of war strategy and the war aims deriving from it. It asks those who want to comprehensively reduce war’s hazards to think strategically and to leverage military strategy as a constraining tool. The effect of the suggested approach is demonstrated through an analysis of targeting rules, where the restrictive attributes of military strategy, which could play a significant role in limiting targeting, have been overlooked.

The Pacific War As Total War
[Chairman’s Summary] The Pacific War as Total War Junichiro Shoji The Forum of this fiscal year is the fifth project on the Pacific War starting from FY2007 and its theme was set as the “Pacific War as Total War”. In this year, the word called “post disaster” was born instead of “postwar” because of the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011. This shows that the great earthquake had a considerable impact on the Japanese society and it is still in our mind. On the other hand, this year is the 70th anniversary of the outbreak of the Pacific War and the 150th anniversary of the U.S. Civil War that occurred in the U.S. mainland and caused a total of about 600,000 deaths from the two armies. This war is said to be a precedent of total war. Nowadays the word “total war” is used vaguely without careful consideration in many cases, and it is occasionally used as a pronoun that means “put all efforts”. For example, a commentator described the championship game between Japanese team and the U.S. team in the FIFAWomen’s World Cup as the “total war”. A person who introduced the concept of “total war” for the first time in the history is French politician Leon Daudet. He published La guerre totale (The Total War) in 1918 based on the lessons learnt from the battle with Germany in the First World War. In the background, there was recognition that World War I was a totally different type of war from traditional wars in which only armies participated.

Law of War Handbook 2005
LAW OF WAR HANDBOOK (2005) MAJ Keith E. Puls Editor 'Contributing Authors Maj Derek Grimes, USAF Lt Col Thomas Hamilton, USMC MAJ Eric Jensen LCDR William O'Brien, USN MAJ Keith Puls NIAJ Randolph Swansiger LTC Daria Wollschlaeger All of the faculty who have served before us and contributed to the literature in the field of operational law. Technical Support CDR Brian J. Bill, USN Ms. Janice D. Prince, Secretary JA 423 International and Operational Law Department The Judge Advocate General's Legal Center and School Charlottesville, Virginia 22903 PREFACE The Law of War Handbook should be a start point for Judge Advocates looking for information on the Law of War. It is the second volume of a three volume set and is to be used in conjunction with the Operational Law Handbook (JA422) and the Documentary Supplement (JA424). The Operational Law Handbook covers the myriad of non-Law of War issues a deployed Judge Advocate may face and the Documentary Supplement reproduces many of the primary source documents referred to in either of the other two volumes. The Law of War Handbook is not a substitute for official references. Like operational law itself, the Handbook is a focused collection of diverse legal and practical information. The handbook is not intended to provide "the school solution" to a particular problem, but to help Judge Advocates recognize, analyze, and resolve the problems they will encounter when dealing with the Law of War. The Handbook was designed and written for the Judge Advocates practicing the Law of War. This body of law is known by several names including the Law of War, the Law of Armed Conflict and International Humanitarian Law.

Their specific character is dependent upon the specific organization of society in times of peace. Since it is always a society that is at war with another society, any aspect of war is fully intelligible only when it is seen in relation to the given organization of those societies, their tech- nologies and their institutions, their material resources and their morals. In this broad sense war has always been totalitarian, but today, the term "Total War" has a special connotation, and there is a good reason for using it in a narrower sense. Total war is unlimited in character; it is what Clause- witz called "absolute war." It differs from that type of war which prevailed in the two centuries prior to the World War.

Total War and Sherman's March to Victory
TOTAL WAR AND SHERMAN’S MARCH TO VICTORY 1 “War is hell.”1 So spoke Union General William Tecumseh Sherman. While certainly not the first military commander in history to say it, he is the general most often quoted as saying it, and perhaps one of the most familiar with the hell that is war. There is a well-known saying that armies are always fighting the last war. That was certainly true in the case of the United States Civil War. Both the Union and the Confederacy engaged in Napoleonic battle tactics and war strategy from the outset. Both sides eagerly sought that one decisive battle that would determine the outcome of the war. But, this war was different, and victory would require a fundamental shift in both battle and war strategy. Through his audacious march to the sea and north through the Carolinas, General Sherman provided that necessary shift. Sherman developed and executed a strategy of what would come to be called total war. He made war not only upon the Confederate army, but upon the South as a whole. Had Sherman not engaged in total war tactics, the South could have continued the war indefinitely and perhaps even gained a negotiated peace. The term “total war” was first coined in 1927 by Italian General Guilio Douhet. Douhet described total war as “the entire population and all the resources of a nation are sucked into the maw of war.”2 In a 1964 essay historian and journalist Bruce Catton stated that “in a total war the enemy’s economy is to be undermined in any way possible.”3 Catton’s description of total war works hand in hand with historian James McPherson’s expanded definition of total war as “a war between peoples rather than simply between armies, a war in which the fighting left nothing untouched or unchanged.”4 Thus when taken together, the best definition of total war can be 1 Matt Carr, “General Sherman’s March to the Sea.
