let's not forget the GREATEST possible violation of laws of war: the mass death of civilian population.

Everyone knows that there is not much food in Iraq. Unless USA & UK actually capture Basra and Bagdad and other cities, it will be quite impossible for them to arrange humanitarian aid...

Please do not blame me now.. I'm just bringing the news.. Actually I have two questions, if someone knows the answers

1. How long can people actually survive in 30+ degrees celsius without water pipes and electiricity and possibly food

2. When they start dying massively, will USA retreat or what will happen..? Or will it just break the Geneva contention and let people die?

From an article:

"Because Britain and the US intend to invade Iraq without the consent of the international community, they will be considered an occupying power under the terms of the fourth Geneva convention, which lays heavy responsibilities on occupiers to ensure law and order, protect private and public property, ensure food and medical supplies to civilians, and ensure hygiene and public health.

The US has acknowledged its responsibilities, and says it has assembled "the largest-ever humanitarian rapid response team" to cope with the aftermath of invasion, with headquarters in Kuwait City and three mobile field offices. "
