My book on Cajetan’s analogy theory was published 15 years ago, in 2010, in paperback. The press issued a hardcover edition in 2022, of which, for some reason, I never received author’s copies—until now.

@omarmcdoom @ProfDBernstein To Bernstein’s point, are there wars you consider non-genocidal and if there are do you believe they truly minimized civilian casualties in every one of them? Don’t armies forgo certain casualty-minimizing strategies because of non-genocidal trade-offs?

@NickSDickinson It seems like you’re arguing that Gaza is under occupation by Hamas, but how is that relevant to Israel’s obligations to Gaza or Hamas’s obligations to Israel?

@ReginaldOhLaw @JoshMBlackman Yeah, I agree that a rebellion, as opposed to an insurrection, would almost inevitably also be a war.

[Roger Waite @rgl1877]

@ReginaldOhLaw @JoshMBlackman A rebellion can be a war, as was the Civil War. But I think it’s plausible because it also covers foreign enemies and, since aid and comfort sweeps broader than regular accomplice liability, you might want to narrow its range.

@EyesOfFawns That a whole factory in a European city would be full of Africans would probably be incredibly low in the minds of Munzer’s intended audience and if he wanted to convey that meaning you strongly expect he’d be less ambiguous 16/
