The Geneva Conventions of 1949 and Their Additional Protocols In 1949, an international conference of diplomats built on the earlier treaties for the protection of war victims, revising and updating them into four new conventions comprising 429 articles of law—known as the Geneva Conventions of August 12, 1949. The Additional Protocols of 1977 and 2005 supplement the Geneva Conventions. The Geneva Conventions apply in all cases of declared war, or in any other armed conflict between nations. They also apply in cases where a nation is partially or totally occupied by soldiers of another nation, even when there is no armed resistance to that occupation. Nations that ratify the Geneva Conventions must abide by certain humanitarian principles and impose legal sanctions against those who violate them. Ratifying nations must www.redcross.org/ihl Local civilians may be asked to care for the wounded and sick. “enact any legislation necessary to provide effective penal sanctions for persons committing or ordering to be committed any of the grave breaches (violations)” of the Conventions.

Art. 132 Children, pregnant women, mothers with infants and young children, the wounded and sick and those who have been interned for a long time are to be released as soon as possible. Common Article 3 All four Geneva Conventions contain an identical Article 3, extending general coverage to “conflicts not of an international character.” In the case of armed conflict not of an international character occurring in the territory of one of the High Contracting Parties, each Party to the conflict shall be bound to apply, as a minimum, the following provisions: 1. Persons taking no active part in the hostilities, including members of the armed forces who have laid down their arms and those placed hors de combat (out of the fight) by sickness, wounds, detention, or any other cause, shall in all circumstances be treated humanely, without any adverse distinction founded on race, color, religion or faith, sex, birth or wealth, or any other similar criteria. 4 Summary of the Geneva Conventions of 1949 and Their Additional Protocols International Humanitarian Law April 2011 To this end, the following acts are and shall remain prohibited at any time and in any place whatsoever with respect to the above-mentioned persons: (a) Violence to life and person, in particular murder of all kinds, mutilation, cruel treatment and torture; (b) Taking of hostages; (c) Outrages upon personal dignity, in particular, humiliating and degrading treatment; (d) The passing of sentences and the carrying out of executions without previous judgment pronounced by a regularly constituted court, affording all the judicial guarantees which are recognized as indispensable by civilized peoples. 2.

The Parties to the conflict should further endeavor to bring into force, by means of special agreements, all or part of the other provisions of the present Convention. The application of the preceding provisions shall not affect the legal status of the Parties to the conflict. www.redcross.org/ihl The Protocols Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 1949 In 1977, two Protocols supplementary to the Geneva Conventions were adopted by an international diplomatic conference to give greater protection to victims of both international and internal armed conflicts. As of 2010, 170 nations have ratified Protocol I and 165 have ratified Protocol II. Any nation that has ratified the Geneva Conventions but not the Protocols is still bound by all provisions of the Conventions. Protocol I (102 Articles) Protocol additional to the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949, and Relating to the Protection of Victims of International Armed Conflicts Protocol I expands protection for the civilian population as well as military and civilian medical workers in international armed conflicts. Specific provisions include: Arts. 15, 79, Arts. 76-77 Special protections are provided for women, children and civilian medical personnel, and measures of protection for journalists are specified. Arts. 17, 81 The ICRC, national societies or other impartial humanitarian organizations authorized by parties to the conflict must be permitted to provide assistance. Art. 35 Use of weapons that “cause superfluous injury or unnecessary suffering,” as well as means of warfare that “cause widespread, long-term, and severe damage to the natural environment” are prohibited. Arts. 43-44 Protocol I seeks to clarify the military status of members of guerrilla forces in the following manner: It includes provisions granting combatant and prisoner of war status to members of dissident forces when under the command of a central authority. Such combatants cannot conceal their allegiance; they must be recognizable as combatants while preparing for or during an attack. Arts. 51, 54 It outlaws indiscriminate attacks on civilian populations and destruction of food, water and other materials needed for survival.

It does not apply to such internal disturbances as riots, demonstrations and isolated acts of violence. Protocol II expands and complements the non international protections contained in Article 3 common to all four Geneva Conventions of 1949. Specific provisions include: Art. 4 Persons who do not take a direct part or who have ceased to take part in hostilities are entitled to respect. In all circumstances, they are to be treated humanely. Protocol II specifically prohibits violence to the life, health and physical or mental well-being of people. In particular, it prohibits acts of murder and cruel treatment, terrorism, hostage-taking, slavery, outrages on personal dignity, collective punishment and pillage. These protections are considered fundamental guarantees for all persons. www.redcross.org/ihl Art. 4 Children are to be evacuated to safe areas when possible and reunited with their families.

Art. 18 Impartial humanitarian relief organizations, such as the ICRC, are to be permitted to continue their humanitarian services

Russia Unleashes Secret Massive Weapon in Unexpected Place - Caught on Camera

Dark Footage

Emerging from the unyielding cold Arctic, a new Russian weapon is revealed: the Burevestnik, a global-range nuclear-powered cruise missile with a theoretical range of up to 14,000 miles. 

As the missile soars into the icy sky, its engines roaring against the backdrop of endless snow, it's clear this is no ordinary weapon. 

Equipped with a compact nuclear reactor and designed to fly at low altitudes to evade radar, the Burevestnik is Russia's audacious answer to modern missile defense systems. 

President Vladimir Putin has confirmed its successful testing, but the missile's full capabilities—like its ability to carry both conventional and nuclear warheads—remain a closely guarded secret. Satellite images have managed to capture only fleeting glimpses of its test flights, fueling speculation and concern across the globe.

Mystery in Cisco Grove: Don Shrum’s Encounter with UFOs, Aliens and Robots

The Why Files

Mystery in Cisco Grove: Don Shrum’s Encounter with UFOs, Aliens and Robots

In September 1964, Captain McLeod and Sergeant Barnes were dispatched from Wright-Patterson Air Force base in Ohio. They were sent to investigate a UFO sighting in Northern California.

Wright-Patterson AFB got lots of UFO reports. 99% of them could be explained. And a sizeable percentage of those sightings were hoaxers looking for attention.

The other 1% were classified as UFOs and sent on to Project Blue Book. What happened from there, McLeod didn't know. The fact that he was being sent to the other side of the country meant this sighting was important to the Air Force.

McLeod had a copy of the teletyped report from the UFO tracking office. It was stamped with an unusual "Priority" notification. It read: 

"UFO landing with entities reported by missile technician in Tahoe NF, Sacramento. Orders: Investigate and contain via usual protocols ASAP."

McLeod's first step was to interview the witness. And, even after 17 years as an investigator, this was strangest UFO story he'd ever heard.

5 Most Mysterious Military Lasers and Directed Energy Weapons

This is a video of Israel's Iron Beam directed energy weapon in action: a powerful laser obliterating a drone in mere seconds. The test footage, released by the Israeli government, showcases one of the strongest practical laser combat weapons in existence, with 100 kilowatts of power.

Developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, the system has grown from an initial power of tens of kilowatts when first unveiled in 2016 to 100 kilowatts today – significant enough to incapacitate short-range projectiles such as rockets and UAVs at a distance of 7 to 10 kilometers...
