Ladies and Gentlemen: Billy H has determined by looking in a manual for courts-martial that the person bringing charges against someone must state the charges and the specifications in writing to his commanding officer, who on review determines whether or not to convene a court. It wsa further determined that if there is to be a court-martial, the accused must be immediately notified and either confined (placed in the guardhouse) or arrested (restricted to quarters). There's more: The investigation of the charges and the specifications can not be conducted by the person bringing the charges, but done by an impartial person with legal experience. So, as soon as S3 comes up with his statement of charges we can get an impartial person to look into them...Concerning weapons, there is nothing in either the Genevao or Hague conventions that forbids incendiary ammunition: "The use of arms or projectiles which could cause superfluous injuries." is how they put it. That word means: more than enough, redundant, or needless. Does that mean if I shoot a man in the foot, I can't shoot him in the liver, or shoot at him until he is dead, or drop an artillery or mortar shell on him. In the case of an incendiary bullet, which has magnesium as an ignitant for Hydrogen, could some medical forumite advise us what superfluous injuries that could cause. Burns? But if so, then wouldn't that burn cauterize the wound like the hot poker against the stump of an amputated leg. Or if you shoot a person in one leg, shooting him in the other leg makes it a superfluous injury...The Roman playwrite Terence wrote: "You that with certain would contrive to rule things so uncertain, may with like success contrive a way of going mad by reason." We are waiting, S3.

If you look at the heading of that thread, you will see that I did exactly what I set out to do...make you do some research outside of your normal, comfortable fables and fairy tales.
You jumped on me, remember? I do not have a capabillity to chase posters off this forum.
Similarly, I cannot, it seems, teach a pig to sing; all I can do is annoy the pig.
Remember, Billy, ALWAYS REPHRASE YOUR RESEARCH OR INTERPRET IT TO MATCH YOUR OWN THOUGHTS.
And always keep this in mind: I am the one who will review any books you perpitrate, so be damned sure of your facts from now on. You do know the difference between facts and fiction, I'm sure, because you accused my other identity of lying (in a suitably veiled manner). Do you remember that, wise guy? YOU are the blight on this forum, not me. I'm only defending my professional intergity from a self-styled "Professional."
