More needed about the pre-modern period

[edit]

The article has several historical examples then skips to “modern“ which I interpret as after the late 19th century (say, the first Geneva convention). However, in wikipedia, I have often come across references to the accepted laws of war, from about 1650 to 1850. But I can’t find a source which states these “accepted laws of war“. Even negative examples of “generally accepted“ would be useful. Generally accepted, of course, means that both sides in the conflict agree that an action was unacceptable.

Remedies for Violations

[edit]

“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.[citation needed]”

I’m not a lawyer, but wouldn’t this then have entitled German Jews to murder millions of Germans and take their possessions? This doesn’t seem to make sense. 97.104.75.33 (talk) 08:09, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
