Extract

One day shy of the tenth anniversary of the al Qaeda attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. (commonly and hereinafter referred to as “9/11”), Professor Mike Schmitt invited me to join distinguished scholars in a forum containing “reflective pieces regarding the international humanitarian law implications of 9/11 to mark the tenth anniversary of the attacks”. I accepted his invitation, honored to be included in such good company.
