While assuming JIB to be true, Shelton wages war on the government and by extension those who support it. He views this as a last resort, since he watched all the other non-violent options fail him. Thus this war can be justified. Shelton is justified in his actions because he is redressing a wrong suffered, and his intentions are to rid the corruptness from the judicial system. The people that Shelton killed are considered combatants because they support they governmental system and work with it.
Using the bomb pretty much guaranteed that the U.S. would occupy Japan without the Soviets as well as sending a clear message to the Soviets to go slow and careful in Europe and it’s territories. Also, the billions spent on the bomb project was only to be justified by proving the military worth of the Atom Bomb in actual use. In his diary, President Truman stated that he and the Secretary of War, Mr. Stimson were in agreement on the bombing. The targets were to be purely military to save innocent lives. A warning was to be issued to the Japanese government in the hopes that they would surrender before the bomb fell.
If you do evil to another you are injuring them. Injuring another person is an unjust thing to do. This would cause chaos to break out and possibly lead the state to fall. Direct action is the strategic use of non-violent tactics and methods to bring an opponent or
Japan had made clear overtures to peace, but cultural differences made this nearly impossible (the shame of unconditional surrender goes against their code of honour). The determination to use an expensive bomb instead of letting it rust away; the desire to find out how devastating it was and the opportunity to use the bomb as a strong showcase of US supremacy, made Japan the ideal target. Obviously, the USSR would eventually succeed in creating the a-bomb. Therefore, making Hiroshima & Nagasaki the example of the tremendous power of the bombs would make it clear to the USSR that they too needed such weapons to defend themselves. Moreover, other countries claimed the right of nuclear weapons to defend their citizens.
Baron stated that: “aggression is any form of behaviour toward the goal of harming or injuring another living being who is motivated to avoid such treatment.” (Baron, R.A. Richardson, D.R. 2004) There are four different types of aggression: Assertive act Instrumental aggression Hostile aggression Non-aggressive act. Many people see aggression in sport as a negative, but some sport psychologists agree that aggression can improve performance (Widmeyer & Birch, 1984). This type of aggression is called assertive behaviour (Bredemeier, 1994), this is where a player will play within the
The use of force is not necessary to gain the cooperation of sources, as prisoners are more likely to cooperate when they feel a sense of trust and respect. Using torture as a means of reducing local threats has proven not to work. Knowing that they will be subject to humiliation and physical abuse makes insurgents fight harder to avoid capture and has increased their dislike for American Forces. It can result in retaliatory acts against our own
A problematic technique is the enemies waving the white flag so that they are able to get close enough to the soldiers to ambush coalition forces. This forces the soldiers to make harsh decisions regarding how to follow the tenant of discrimination. The United States respects the sacredness of all religious facilities, schools and hospitals. The terrorists also use this to their advantage and stage training facilities within the sacred locations further complication the ability of the coalition forces to discern friend or foe.
Strengths of this study would include the large number of participants over various countries therefore a socio-cultural strength and more in depth data is produced. Another strength is the ability to access existing conditions or phenomena ethically. A weakness of this study would be using a self scale is unreliable as the participants might have a different approach on how intense the level of disgust is on the scale. Another weakness could be that there could be participants who have not taken the online survey seriously therefore altering the results. These results showed that because people find the pictures that harm our immune system more disgusting , we use the disgust gene as a protection against disease.
In the essay “The Ecstasy of War”, Barbara Ehrenreich (1997) states the transformation from ordinary people to warriors instead of aggressive instinct can persuade men to prevail in war. Generally, the wars are risky means which designed to secure the people’s interests. Sometimes, the aggressive impulses can make a great contribution to the actual battle. But the war-like calmness, as well as the unwavering aiming and fire ability, is the key to take advantages in modern warfare. Actually, fighting is only a simple component of war and it cannot control the whole war.
Entrapping grounds, also known as entangling grounds, are dangerous for any unprepared armies. One can easily launch an attack and capture the unprepared enemy in an entrapping ground. However, the situation can be a tricky if the enemy is well-prepared. In this case, the attacking party will not be able to defeat the enemy easily. To make matters worse, retreating is not an easy task in this type of ground, putting the attacking party in a disadvantageous position.
