Making War Possible!

On making war possible: Soldiers, strategy, and military grand narrative Christophe Wasinski (University of Namur, Brussels, Belgium) – Security Dialogue – Vol. 42, No. 1 (February 2011), pp. 57-76
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to expose the existence of a recurring military grand narrative in the modern state-centric world. This narrative rests on techniques for codifying military discipline that appeared after the Middle Ages. It was then framed and diffused intertextually in classical military treatises thanks to the rediscovery of certain developments and concepts in the fields of geometry and perspective. According to the rules of this narrative, military actions are mostly described by mentioning the location and movements of (friendly or enemy) units deployed on a given terrain. This produced a geographical representation of war that is still largely relied upon by soldiers in contemporary armies (it will especially be found in current computerized systems available in contemporary military headquarters). The consequences of this narrative are manifold: (1) it participated in and assisted the reification and dehumanization of individuals as soldiers; (2) it acts as a rhetorical tool that rationalizes and naturalizes warfare; (3) and it strongly contributes to definitions of what war is in the modern state-centric world. In this way, it makes war possible.

Afghanistan war crimes investigation may not have uncovered all illegal killings, Angus Campbell says
Australian Defence Force Chief Angus Campbell has conceded Australian special forces may have committed more illegal killings during deployments in Afghanistan than have so far been discovered by a long-running probe.
A report released on Thursday following a four-year investigation by Major General Paul Brereton recommended that 19 soldiers be investigated by police for the alleged murder of 39 prisoners and civilians and the cruel treatment of two more between 2005 and 2016.
It found “credible information” that 25 current or former Australian Defence Force personnel were involved in the serious crimes — either carrying out the offences or at least being “accessories” to the incidents.
However, the investigators were hampered by “outright deceit” and “misguided resistance” from some personnel and their superiors.
The soldiers of the SAS have been held up as heroes, yet a number of them are being accused of the most heinous of crimes, including the murder of innocents, writes Mark Willacy.
