Unilaterally intervening into other countries has caused more harm than good for the U.S. Unilateral force causes harm to the United States because it violates international law. The fundamental rule of contemporary international law is that states cannot attack other states. The U.N. Charter embodies this rule and makes only two exceptions to it: a state can attack another state if it is authorized to do so by a Security Council resolution, or if the attacking state is acting in genuine self-defense. It would also violate the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), a landmark international treaty whose objective is to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and weapons technology, to promote cooperation in the peaceful uses of nuclear energy and to further the goal of achieving nuclear disarmament and general and complete disarmament.
Prior to diving in more profoundly into the causes of bargaining failure, let us first briefly define what this entails. It is important to mention that the prospects of war or conversely, of finding a peaceful deal instead of war, depend on the bargaining range and on the size of the former. It also depends on the fact of whether there is one to begin with. That bargaining range itself depends on the expected value of war. Here, it is crucial to understand that the bargaining range is determined by the expected outcome of the war minus the cost for each state.
It isn't right to take up arms without adequate reason. Adequate reason unquestionably incorporates self-protection against a demonstration of hostility, however, what else may give admirable motivation to a war is hard to recognize. The barrier of others against an attacker country may well be adequate defence for war. It is less evident whether pre-emptive strikes against a country that could possibly represent a danger meet this condition. Proper Authority The second condition is that war must be proclaimed by a legitimate specialist, a delegate of a country.
“Terrorism is the calculated use of violence or the threat of violence against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious or ideological in nature; this is done through coercion, intimidation, or instilling fear (Sarkesian, Williams, and Cimbala, 2008).” Terrorism can be a law enforcement issue, a military issue, or both. The FBI defines a terrorist incident as “a violent act or an act dangerous to human life, in violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any state, to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social goals.” Efforts in dealing with terrorism differ not only within the United States, but throughout the world, to include Europe. Determining whether Terrorism is a law enforcement issue or a military issue is very trick, in fact it could be one or the other or even both at the end of the day. Law enforcement and military agencies approach terrorism in different ways. There exists laws of, but it is prudent that one understand that war; even with laws can and never will be clean and moral.
The USA believed its actions were justified by labelling them as self defence under Article 51 of the UN charter. This clearly shows that the USA based its responses to international aggression on protecting their own national interests. In addition, the USA further showed that their response to international aggression was based on their own national interests with their invasion of Iraq in March 2003. The USA believed Saddam Hussein to have been harbouring weapons of mass destruction which could be made available to the al-Qaeda to which they invaded with Britain, legitimising their actions by again stating it was due to self defence as they perceived themselves to be under threat. This was against the wishes of member
On the other hand, Luban, would say Yoo ignores the law models and war models if they deny terrorist suspects protection as required. Yoo says, in order to convict a defendant of torture the prosecution must have establish that the torture occurred outside the United States, the defendant acted under the color of law, he victim was within the custody of the defendant, the pain or suffering should be intended. Torture is performed on victims to obtain information or confession, to punish them, for intimidation, or for discrimination. Mental pain is effected by intentional or threatened infliction of severe physical or mental pain, administration or threatened administration of mind altering substances or methods that disrupt senses or personality, threat of imminent death or threat that another person will be immediately subjected to death. Luban raised two models; first is the war model, which supports the use of lethal force on enemy troops irrespective of whether they were personally involved with the adversary.
He is said to have inherited tens of millions of dollars that he used to help finance the group. Al-Qaida also maintains moneymaking front businesses, solicits donations from like-minded supporters, and illicitly siphons funds from donations to Muslim charitable organizations. US efforts to block Al-Qaida funding have hampered Al-Qaida’s ability to obtain money. Osama Bin Laden was killed on May 2, 2011, in the Pakistani town of Abbottabad, north of the capital Islamabad, during a raid by U.S. Navy Seals.

News May 05, 2011 THE DEATH OF OSAMA BIN LADEN EFFECTING EVERYONE? By: Kawenvir Singh As Americans learned the death of Osama Bin Laden, the leader of Al-Qaeda, the streets of America had begun to flutter with celebration.

South Asia after Osama bin Laden The US Navy Seals killed the most wanted terrorist in the world-Osama bin Laden in an independent operation in Abbottabad Pakistan on May 2 2011. His body was subsequently laid to rest in the waters of the Indian Ocean. By doing this, the US claims to have cut the head of Al-Qaeda and also avenge the deaths of 9/11. However the complete fallouts of this event are yet to unfold. And this is not because one person named Osama bin Laden who was accused of masterminding one of the dreadest acts of terrorism in history has been killed, but it is more because of the ideology which he personified and the stature he had acquired by using the Jehadi ideology to recreate the perception of the ‘clash of civilization’
Ayatollah Khomeini one of the 20th century's most ruthless leaders. As a 70-year-old grandfather, Khomeini pulled off one of the most daring revolutions in history and served a crushing blow to America. Osama bin Laden was the cause for 911 and many other Terrorist attacks. When the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 1979, Osama joined the Afghan resistance, believing it was his duty as a Muslim to fight the occupation. Last but not least he was shot in the leg, sentenced to death, escaped twice from prison, led a successful one-day revolution, and became the leader of his country mostly while still in college.
