Description
The author asserts that three major Executive branch mistakes in 2001 and 2002 created the conditions for misunderstanding of international humanitarian law and the authority of the military to capture and detain unprivileged belligerents and conduct military commissions. His experience as a career Army Judge Advocate and as the Convening Authority for Military Commissions provides him with a unique perspective. He discusses early Presidential decisions that undermined the good will of the international community, generating critical reaction that forced the administration to respond constantly to debates regarding domestic criminal law standards. Rather, the administration should have engaged in meaningful discussions of appropriate responses to non-state actors waging war and the appropriate application of international humanitarian law standards. The author concludes that the administration's arrogance and naivete led to these mistakes. **********
