Also, Civilians have always been targeted. Length of war does not change the definition; war is still war no matter how long.]]> 2017-10-09 14:33:07 UTC https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195246092 https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195246436 Warfare is intrinsic to war itself, how a war is fought often defines it. The growth of terrorism demonstrates this, new form of warfare that has redefined war, changing everything

Whatever the definition of war, there is still a winner or loser. Eg both gulf wars were completely different, but still wars. Terrorism has always been a problem; Black hand, Terrorism has always existed; in fact right now it is periodlly low. https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195247550 2017-10-09 14:35:44 UTC https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195247550 https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195247877 War still exists. Terrorism may have always existed but in the last decade is the first time states themselves have united to declare war on terrorists.]]> 2017-10-09 14:36:27 UTC https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195247877 https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195248840 That is the definition which have changed, and only the name. It is still a war - the main aim of beating terrorism is still to win.  Didn’t not specify that the main actor was just states. Terrorism in Ireland and Italy were wars.

To win used to be about just taking territory, now its about security. Morality is also intrinsic to 'winning' now]]> 2017-10-09 14:39:02 UTC https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195249142 It has always been about security - that is why many states want territory. Winning hasn’t changed. No it isn’t - there has been no moral wars won recently; there is still civilians being killed, torture and imprisonment happening https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195250261 2017-10-09 14:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/adamdrew9/mjdqev6htibp/wish/195250261
