| | Laws of war |
 | | Spies and terrorists are not protected by the laws of war; depending on the circumstances, they may be subject to civilian law or military tribunal for their acts and in practice have been subjected to torture and/or execution. | | | During conflict, punishment for violating the laws of war may consist of a specific, deliberate and limited violation of the laws of war in reprisal. | | | After a conflict has ended, persons who have committed any breach of the laws of war, and especially atrocities, may be held individually accountable for war crimes through process of law. |

| | Violations of the law of armed conflict committed by persons subject to the military law of the United States will usually constitute violations of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and, if so, will be prosecuted under that Code. | | | However, the fact that a war crime under international law is made legal and even obligatory under national law may be considered in mitigation of punishment. | | | As is the case with international law generally, the principal sources of the law of armed conflict are custom, as reflected in the practice of nations, and international agreements. |

| | The laws which prohibit such conduct are specific and clear, are equally beneficial to all, and are generally not open to self-interpretation. | | | Such is the case with the majority of international law, especially with regard to the rules of land warfare. | | | Furthermore, the Soviet Union's acceptance of any remaining laws should not be construed as an intent to abide by the spirit under which they were written. |

| | However, in view of the current state of International Law, and of the elements of fact at its disposal, the Court cannot conclude definitively whether the threat or use of nuclear weapons would be lawful or unlawful in an extreme circumstance of self-defence, in which the very survival of a State would be at stake; | | | The opinion of the International Court of Justice ("World Court") came in response to a request from the United Nations General Assembly. | | | In cases where the objectives specified in paragraph 2 are so situated, that they cannot be bombarded without the indiscriminate bombardment of the civilian population, the aircraft must abstain from bombardment. |

| | Asymmetric warfare - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | This is typically done to give deniability to the state actor. | | | Similarly, laws of warfare prohibit combatants from using civilian settlements, populations or facilities as military bases, but when an inferior power uses this tactic, it depends on the superior power respecting the law that they are violating, and not attacking that civilian target. | | | Where asymmetric warfare is carried out (generally covertly) by allegedly non-governmental actors who are connected to or sympathetic to a particular nation's (the "state actor's") interest, it may be deemed |

| | Although it is generally assumed that there have always been limits to what soldiers are permitted to do in war, it was not until 1863, in the heat of the Civil War, that the United States issued its first Army manual. | | | Subsequently, manuals of land warfare were issued in 1914, 1934, 1940, 1944, 1956, and 1976 by the American military. | | | Among his earlier books are The War Myth and War Crimes and Laws of War. |
