Urban Warfare and Military Ethics

John Spencer | October 30, 2020
 

In this episode of MWI’s Urban Warfare Project Podcast, John Spencer is joined by Dr. Deane Baker, an associate professor and co-convener of the Future Operations Research Group in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences in the University of New South Wales, Canberra at the Australian Defence Force Academy. He specializes in the ethics of armed conflict.

In the conversation, Dr. Baker discusses his research on military ethics and how ethical dilemmas present themselves on the battlefield. In particular, he explains why urban warfare creates a context that generates unique ethical concerns—concerns that remain unresolved and are of interest to both warfighters and ethicists.

Interesting topic considering.....

Ethics?  From what I saw this summer, ISIS and alQaeda is no different than BLM / Antifa.  I hope combatants realize that.
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
