I could care less who starts wars, my interest is restricted to how 
they tend to prosecute.  Is it still (as is currently) the practice of 
the NAC (read US/UK) to teach and enforce the Geneva, Hauge, and other

has been stuffed in an airlock and show into space?  That's all I'm 
asking, and I only care in regards to mine warfare.  It matters.
