Abstract
In this Article, we shall try to define this new kind of war. We shall analyze the rules of war in the modern age and examine whether these rules are also applicable in an unconventional war—a war on terror. This is a war with an enemy that does not observe the limits of violence and force; an enemy which aspires to realize its irrational ideology in an irrational way, showing total disregard for the value of human life, of either its own terrorist “soldiers” or, of course, of it enemies.
