ABSTRACT

This chapter begins by weighing biological, technological, psychological, political, and spiritual concerns of war ethics that this particular war presented. It offers a vision of a new world order in which peace and justice can make war obsolete–an eschatology that will inspire a creative ethic. Biological warfare and the biological side effects of conventional warfare have long been a part of war. The exquisite communications technology available in 1990 changed the face of war, shifting the intelligence balance to the side that had access to satellite and aircraft monitoring. Sparing the victor from the trauma of self-dehumanization that follows from dehumanizing another person is part of the psychology of the restraints of war in holy and just war ethics. The prospect of a lasting moral order emerging from the war over Kuwait depends on how the nations of the world intertwine the political and spiritual experiences and expressions of their cultures.
