Its timeliness is demonstrated in the 2009 Goldstone Report?s call for an urgent UNGA discussion on such weapons? future legality. The book's first part reviews flechette weapon development and use during the Vietnam War as well as the consequent efforts to ban them. It then turns to the Israeli case: the use in Lebanon, the Gaza Strip and the resulting Supreme Court petition. The book's third and main part dissects the prolonged debate over banning flechettes while resting on unique primary sources such as Israeli post mortem reports together with an ample legal and military-medical literature. The book thus provides one of the most comprehensive explorations available of the distinctions separating legal from illegal conventional weapons. 410 0$aInternational humanitarian law series ;$vv. 32. 606 $aArms control 606 $aProjectiles, Aerial 606 $aArab-Israeli conflict 607 $aIsrael$xGovernment policy$zGaza Strip 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArms control. 615 0$aProjectiles, Aerial. 615 0$aArab-Israeli conflict. 676 $a341.7/33 701 $aBarak$b Eitan$01045884 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457930303321 996 $aDeadly metal rain$92472477 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02204oas 2200865 a 450 001 9910265957703321 005 20251106213014.0 011 $a0093-1284 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2588261-2 035 $a(OCoLC)715552644 035 $a(CONSER) 2018201241 035 $a(CKB)991042729497298 035 $a(EXLCZ)99991042729497298 100 $a20110427b18471886 uy a 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||||abp 135 $aurbn||||||ada 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aAmerican annals of the deaf and dumb 210 1$aHartford :$cAmerican Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb,$d1847-1886. 210 31$aWashington, D.C. :$cConvention of American Instructors of the Deaf and Dumb 311 08$a0093-1284 517 1 $aAm. ann. deaf dumb 606 $aDeaf people$vPeriodicals 606 $aDeafness 606 $aDeaf people$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00888436 608 $aPeriodical. 608 $aperiodicals.$2aat 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 608 $aPeriodicals.$2lcgft 608 $aPeriodicals.$2rbgenr 608 $aPe?riodiques.$2rvmgf 615 0$aDeaf people 615 2$aDeafness. 615 7$aDeaf people 676 $a362.42 712 02$aAmerican Asylum, at Hartford, for the Education and Instruction of the Deaf and Dumb 712 02$aConvention of American Instructors of the Deaf and Dumb. 801 0$bOCLCE 801 1$bOCLCE 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bTXA 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bJSTOR 801 2$bDLC 801 2$bVT2 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCA 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bOCLCA 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bUPM 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bORZ 801 2$bMIGCL 801 2$bRCE 801 2$bCUY 801 2$bKAG 801 2$bNLE 801 2$bHUL 801 2$bTOH 801 2$bUAB 801 2$bOCLCL 801 2$bBWN 801 2$bOCLCL 801 2$bOCLCQ 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910265957703321 996 $aAmerican annals of the deaf and dumb$92245497 997 $aUNINA
