The Vietnam war is over, halted overnight by the rise of the living, hungry dead, but for CIA Special Agent Declan Rule, another war has just begun. From the ruins of devastated US firebase Aries, Rule and his highly trained German Shepherd companion, Nero, journey deep into the humid, blood-soaked hell of Cambodia in search of a madman named Morneau.

Through battle, torture, and blood, the man without mercy will face the man without conscience...and all the rules of war will be broken! Over Saigon, US Army Private Kuen Yam and his ragged band of survivors struggle to keep their grip on sanity and humanity as their wounded plane forces them back into the grip of the dead.

Islamic Jihadism and the Laws of War
Author: Omar Mekky
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0198888368
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
The rapid rise of global Islamic Jihadism in the past few decades and the limited success of the anti-terror campaign in halting its expansion have raised hard-hitting questions about how different political actors might preserve and restore the world's peace and security. Since the end of the Second World War, international law has often been the chief instrument employed to address global conundrums of this kind. Nevertheless, international law alone cannot solve this problem. Jihadist groups often cite Islamic law argumentations to justify their combat-related actions against states while rejecting traditional international law rules. On the other hand, some states themselves ignore traditional international law rules to apply their so-called "counterterrorism" measures. The internationally recognized laws of war - created to protect those who do not participate in hostilities - are constantly challenged by jihadist groups and responding states in justification of their combat actions. In Islamic Jihadism and the Laws of War , Dr Omar Mekky explores both sides' legal frameworks, synthesising findings from both English and Arabic sources. Drawing from the author's field expertise as a legal advisor in the Middle East and North Africa, the book narrates how Islamic Jihadism began and evolved, outlines the laws jihadists apply during combat, addresses how states often react in their fights against jihadist groups, and aims for a pragmatic humanitarian legal formula. An essential resource for legal professionals, policymakers, academics, and students, Mekky's book initiates a constructive dialogue between international law and Islamic law.

The Cambridge History of War: Volume 4, War and the Modern World
Author: Roger Chickering
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316175928
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 1065
Book Description
Volume IV of The Cambridge History of War offers a definitive new account of war in the most destructive period in human history. Opening with the massive conflicts that erupted in the mid nineteenth century in the US, Asia and Europe, leading historians trace the global evolution of warfare through 'the age of mass', 'the age of machine' and 'the age of management'. They explore how industrialization and nationalism fostered vast armies whilst the emergence of mobile warfare and improved communications systems made possible the 'total warfare' of the two World Wars. With military conflict regionalized after 1945 they show how guerrilla and asymmetrical warfare highlighted the limits of the machine and mass as well as the importance of the media in winning 'hearts and minds'. This is a comprehensive guide to every facet of modern war from strategy and operations to its social, cultural, technological and political contexts and legacies.
