COUNTERINSURGENCY WARFARE the Interplay Between the Legal Paradigms of Law Enforcement and the Conduct of Hostilities COUNTERINSURGENCY WARFARE The Interplay Between the Legal Paradigms of Law Enforcement and the Conduct of Hostilities Author: Melina Gayle Mouris ANR: 685816 - SNR: 1266007 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. N.M. Rajkovic LLM International Law and Global Governance Department European and International Public Law Faculty of Law, Tilburg University The Netherlands, December 2019 P a g e | 1 “THE FIRST THING THAT MUST BE APPARENT WHEN CONTEMPLATING THE SORT OF ACTION WHICH A GOVERNMENT FACING INSURGENCY SHOULD TAKE, IS THAT THERE CAN BE NO SUCH THING AS A PURELY MILITARY SOLUTION BECAUSE INSURGENCY IS NOT PRIMARILY A MILITARY ACTIVITY.” ~ General Sir Frank Kitson1 ~ 1 Kitson 1977, p. 283. P a g e | 2 P a g e | 3 P a g e | 4 ABSTRACT The wars fought nowadays cannot be compared with the traditional ways of warfare. Conflicts occur in smaller scale and among the population within urban areas. 2 In order to quell insurgencies, States have come to realize the need for a population centered approach. 3 Counterinsurgency is a military tactic of fighting insurgencies where it is of utmost importance to win the heart of the population. The specific characteristics inherent to modern-day insurgencies cause difficulties with regard to the applicable rules of international law. This research therefore examines the interplay between the law enforcement paradigm and the conduct of hostilities paradigm in the context of counterinsurgency operations. The counterinsurgency operation performed by the International Security Force Afghanistan offers an illustrative example of the interplay between the two paradigms from a practical perspective. Warfare – Counterinsurgency – Law Enforcement and the Conduct of Hostilities – International Human Rights Law and International Human Rights Law – International Security Force Afghanistan 2 Banks 2013, p. 10. 3 Pouw 2013, p. 2. P a g e | 5 PREFACE This master thesis is the end result of many years of endeavor and forms the final requirement of the Master International Law and Global Governance. Conducting my studies, doing an internship at the juridical department of the Dutch Ministry of Defense and the writing of my master thesis has been a period in which I have gained a better perspective in my future career path. Both research and the law of war have fascinated me for several years and the last few months have only confirmed this interest. This master thesis has certainly not been written without guidance. First and foremost, I would like to express my profound gratitude towards my supervisor, prof. dr. Rajkovic, who has been very instrumental. His support, sympathetic assistance and valuable feedback have helped me tremendously in completing my thesis. My sincere thanks also goes to Lieutenant Colonel Pouw for his time and effort in discussing the subject of this thesis and explaining his dissertation on which this thesis builds upon. I realize that it is not self-evident for him to invest valuable time in my research and I am therefore very grateful for his help. Furthermore, I want to extend my love and gratitude to my parents for their unconditional support. I proudly dedicate this master thesis to them. Also many thanks to my partner and my friends for their useful feedback and encouragement, especially in the stressful times.

Willbanks, Committee Member ____________________________ Dr. Robert F. Baumann, Committee Member ____________________________ Dr. Maria Carlson, Committee Member ____________________________ Dr. Jacob W. Kipp, Committee Member Date approved: April 27, 2009 ii PREFACE Generals have often been reproached with preparing for the last war instead of for the next–an easy gibe when their fellow-countrymen and their political leaders, too frequently, have prepared for no war at all. Preparation for war is an expensive, burdensome business, yet there is one important part of it that costs little–study. However changed and strange the new conditions of war may be, not only generals, but politicians and ordinary citizens, may find there is much to be learned from the past that can be applied to the future and, in their search for it, that some campaigns have more than others foreshadowed the coming pattern of modern war.1 — Field Marshall Viscount William Slim.

Correspondence: [email protected] ABSTRACT US military intervention in Afghanistan was decisive and forceful, however, the Taliban’s insurgency inevitably transformed U.S. military doctrine and strategy from conventional military intervention into Counterinsurgency’s kinetic and non-kinetic operations. U.S. strategic and operational methodology despite exhausting all possibilities; troops’ surge, air dominance/surveillance, non-kinetic peace building operations, failed to dislodge the threat of Taliban violence. An effort is made to identify the underlying factors contributory to the failure of the U.S. strategy, tactics and other challenges faced despite having unparalleled military superiority. This paper further probes the U.S. military strategic repositioning, social structure with the warlords and critically examines how the conflict drifted from intervention into Counterinsurgency irregular warfare. Keywords: Intervention, Humanitarian, Counterinsurgency, Strategic Culture, National Building Introduction Historically, interventions by all the great powers in Afghanistan had been decisive and one-sided due to their military and technological superiority.

Shawn Miller, February 2, 2011 www.law.columbia.edu/human-rights-institute Report designed by Dena Verdesca. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC) is an international organization dedicated to promoting the protection of civilians caught in conflict. CIVIC’s mission is to work with armed actors and civilians in conflict to develop and implement solutions to prevent, mitigate, and respond to civilian harm. Our vision is a world where parties to armed conflict recognize the dignity and rights of civilians, prevent civilian harm, protect civilians caught in conflict, and amend harm. CIVIC was established in 2003 by Marla Ruzicka, a young humanitarian who advocated on behalf of civilian war victims and their families in Iraq and Afghanistan. Building on her extraordinary legacy, CIVIC now operates in conflict zones throughout the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and South Asia to advance a higher standard of protection for civilians. At CIVIC, we believe that parties to armed conflict have a responsibility to prevent and address civilian harm. We assess the causes of civilian harm in particular conflicts, craft practical solutions to address that harm, and advocate the adoption of new policies and practices that lead to the improved wellbeing of civilians caught in conflict. Recognizing the power of collaboration, we engage with civilians, governments, militaries, and international and regional institutions to identify, institutionalize, and strengthen protections for civilians in conflict. www.civiliansinconflict.org The Columbia Law School Human Rights Institute advances international human rights through education, advocacy, fact-finding, research, scholarship, and critical reflection.

  • War in Afghanistan (2001‒Present)
    War in Afghanistan (2001–present) 1 War in Afghanistan (2001–present) The War in Afghanistan began on October 7, 2001,[1] as the armed forces of the United States and the United Kingdom, and the Afghan United Front (Northern Alliance), launched Operation Enduring Freedom in response to the September 11 attacks on the United States, with the stated goal of dismantling the Al-Qaeda terrorist organization and ending its use of Afghanistan as a base. The United States also said that it would remove the Taliban regime from power and create a viable democratic state. The preludes to the war were the assassination of anti-Taliban leader Ahmad Shah Massoud on September 9, 2001, and the September 11 attacks on the United States, in which nearly 3000 civilians lost their lives in New York City, Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania, The United States identified members of al-Qaeda, an organization based in, operating out of and allied with the Taliban's Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, as the perpetrators of the attacks. In the first phase of Operation Enduring Freedom, ground forces of the Afghan United Front working with U.S. and British Special Forces and with massive U.S. air support, ousted the Taliban regime from power in Kabul and most of Afghanistan in a matter of weeks. Most of the senior Taliban leadership fled to neighboring Pakistan. The democratic Islamic Republic of Afghanistan was established and an interim government under Hamid Karzai was created which was also democratically elected by the Afghan people in the 2004 general elections. The International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) was established by the UN Security Council at the end of December 2001 to secure Kabul and the surrounding areas.
