I would like to thank my good friend and generous colleague, Professor Andrew P.

Quinney College of Law, 2009) for her invaluable research and editing contributions. 41 CORNELL INT'L L.J. 631 (2008) Cornell International Law Journal Vol. 41 "Rhetoric is a poor substitute for action, and we have trusted only to rhetoric. If we are really to be a great nation, we must not merely talk; we must act big.' "[D]etached reflection cannot be demanded in the presence of an uplifted 2 knife." Introduction The above quotations reflect important tensions inherent in self- defense-how does the United States "act big;" and is "detached reflection" truly possible in the face of a potential attack? For the past six years, much of the Bush Administration's operational counterterrorism has been largely ineffective. In addition, serious questions have been raised as to whether or not a counterterrorism strategy has been developed since the attacks of September 11, 2001 (9/11). Counterterrorism tactics must not be confused with counterterrorism strategy. For example, the question of whether a suspected terrorist is killed is tactical. Alternatively, strategic questions include why that indi- vidual was targeted, what is the long term significance of his death, and what threat did he present. Institutionalized, legal-based process is of para- mount importance in developing a counterterrorism strategy. The gather- ing and analysis of intelligence information is the essence of operational counterterrorism. Checks and balances and the doctrine of separation of powers are the essence of the American constitutional paradigm and pro- tect against an unfettered executive. The paradigm this article proposes articulates a confluence between intelligence gathering, making that intelli- gence operational, and the checks required on the executive to ensure the legality of the President's decisions. A. Background One of the most important questions post-9/11 is how a nation-state defends itself against an unseen enemy. 3 This article will focus on how a nation-state that believes in the rule of law and morality in armed conflict prevents attacks against its innocent citizens. Self-defense, or active pre- emptive self-defense, 4 against the unseen enemy is extraordinarily difficult and fraught with enormous risks and dangers. 5 How and when a nation- state defends itself against such an enemy is not only critical to address, but it is the combat of the future. In the context of post-9/11 operational 1. Theodore Roosevelt, METROPOLITAN, Sept. 1917, at 21. 2. Nicholas J. Johnson, Self-Defense?, 2 J. L. EcON. & POL'Y 187, 205 (2006) (citing Brown v.

INT'L L. 319, 324 (2004) [hereinafter Targeted Killing]. 2008 Self-Defense- From the Wild West to 9/11 counterterrorism, the question is whether self-defense, as presently articu- lated by international law, enables the United States to act preventively in an effective way. This article will address this issue in an interdisciplinary manner, analyzing American criminal and constitutional law, as well as international law. This analysis will enable policy and decisionmakers, academics, the general public, and military commanders to develop and implement a definition of self-defense relevant to post-9/11 conflicts. An introduction of this nature invariably raises the question of whether there is a need for another article on this subject. Although case law addressing6 and literature discussing 7 self-defense are boundless and impressive, this article, through an interdisciplinary analysis of self- defense, articulates a new process-based self-defense standard predicated on a historical analogy to the Wild West. This article also proposes expanding substantive procedural measures between the U.S. judicial and executive branches in operational counterterrorism. The attacks of September 11, 2001, taught decisionmakers and com- manders alike that in future military conflicts, nation-states will usually confront non-state actors, rather than other nation-states. 8 The traditional state versus state war as understood by the "founding fathers" of interna- tional law is largely a historical relic.9 Given this change in the nature of the conflict, the events of 9/11 clearly suggest the need to re-articulate international law.10 6. For case law regarding self-defense-including international, federal, and state cases-see, for example, Brown v. United States, 256 U.S. 335, 343 (1921) ("Detached reflection cannot be demanded in the presence of uplifted knife."); Beard v. United States, 158 U.S. 550, 563-64 (1895) (no duty to retreat before using deadly force); State v. Hogan, 764 A.2d 1012, 1026-27 (NJ. Super. Ct. App. Div. 2001) (justification defenses are not available in a prosecution where recklessness or negligence suffices to establish the requisite culpability state); People v. Goetz, 497 N.E.2d 41, 46-48 (N.Y. 1986) (reasonableness means that defendant has requisite belief that deadly force is necessary and that such belief is reasonable); Armed Activities on the Territory of the Congo (Dem. Rep. Congo v. Uganda), 2005 l.CJ, 116 (Dec. 19). 7.

The plane suffered crippling damage, with a resulting fire and explosion. Unable to maintain flight, Captain Crayton ejected over enemy territory. What happened next, though, demonstrates his character and heroism. While enemy troops quickly closed on his position, a search and rescue helicopter with armed escort arrived to attempt a pick up. Despite repeated efforts to clear the area of hostile fire, they were unsuccessful, and fuel ran low. Aware of this, and despite the grave personal danger, Captain Crayton selflessly directed them to depart, leading to his inevitable capture by the enemy. So began seven years of captivity as a prisoner of war. During this period, Captain Crayton provided superb leadership and guidance to fellow prisoners at several POW locations. Under the most adverse conditions, he resisted his captor’s efforts to break him, and he helped others maintain their resistance.

  • The Naming of Gaming
    The Naming of Gaming Pauliina Raento Academy of Finland and William A. Douglass University of Nevada, Reno The naming of casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada, is an essential ingredient in the design of the city's entertainment landscape. More than 300 names have been used in the naming of gaming in Las Vegas since 1955. They occur in seven dominant patterns: 1) luck and good fortune, 2) wealth and opulence, 3) action, adventure, excitement and fantasy, 4) geography, 5) a certain moment, era, or season, 6) intimacy and informal- ity, and 7) "power words" commonly used in the naming of businesses. The categories are described and analyzed from the perspective of the evolution of Las Vegas. Regional variations between the Las Vegas Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, and suburban Las Vegas are also discussed. The names provide a powerful means of evoking senses of place, images, and identities for the casinos. They underscore the interpretative subjectivity and plurality of the relationship between people and commercial urban environments. Introduction We name people, things, and places to distinguish them from one another and to give them character.
