Sinossi

Military Ethics Today examines the critical role of ethical principles in modern warfare, questioning whether they are truly upheld amidst the harsh realities of armed conflict. It explores the evolution of military ethics, from ancient codes to the Geneva Conventions, highlighting the necessity of adapting ethical frameworks to address contemporary challenges like cyber warfare and autonomous weapons. The book argues that a proactive, values-driven approach, emphasizing continuous education and international cooperation, is crucial for mitigating ethical risks in modern conflict, especially given that the erosion of ethical standards can undermine peace and stability.

 
The book progresses by first introducing core ethical concepts such as distinction, proportionality, and necessity, alongside legal frameworks governing armed conflict. It then delves into specific ethical dilemmas, including the protection of non-combatants in urban warfare and the implications of targeted killings. By exploring these issues through historical case studies, legal analyses, and empirical research, the book offers a practical framework for military professionals, policymakers, and citizens to navigate the ethical complexities of twenty-first-century warfare. It underscores the importance of ethical training and leadership within military institutions, alongside robust international accountability.

The song, 'Don't You Know' sung by Chey at the end of the sermon, gives the listener an opportunity to reflect on the sermon.

    I Don't Want to Go to School...

    “I don’t want to gp. I just can’t do it anymore.” "My stomach hurts, and I'm afraid of throwing up." "It sucks. What’s the point.” "I'm tired. I need a break. "I'm just fine where I am, in my room."
    Since the health crisis, Thierry Delcourt has observed a considerable increase in children who cannot or no longer want to go to school, not only for problems of violence, racketeering and bullying, but rather for much more troubling reasons—hostility, laziness, convenience or opportunism. According to the author, who has cross-checked data from National Education and the CNED, absenteeism at school has increased by 10% over the last 3 years. 
    This book aims to enlighten anxious parents, disoriented teachers, and psychologists who are overwhelmed by these situations, and to provide an approach to understand and overcome these obstacles that lead to school dropout and, in the long run, to school failure. Each chapter refers to a particular situation, analyzes the reason for it and then offers advice on how to combat this scourge.

    A poignant exploration of what it means to be Jewish today, from a leading voice in modern Judaism, Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove of Park Avenue Synagogue 
    For Jews today, the attack on Israel on October 7th has drawn a clear and irreversible demarcation in time. On that day, the Jewish community woke up to an unrecognizable new reality, witnessing the stark rise in antisemitism, the world’s oldest hatred, in its wake.  
    But even in this dark hour, the Jewish community is experiencing something profound and beautiful: a deep, abiding connection to community, culture, and faith. Drawing on the rich trove of Jewish history and tradition, Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove, one of today’s most influential thought leaders and spiritual guides, helps readers make sense of this fraught time. With warmth and wisdom, Rabbi Cosgrove explores the challenging questions embedded in the soul of contemporary Jewry. Where did all this antisemitism come from, and was it always there? How have Israel and Zionism shaped American Judaism, and what ties us and divides us today? How do we practice Judaism and understand our place in a world that has, without fail, in every century, turned against us? 
    Knitting together storytelling with ancient teachings, Rabbi Cosgrove helps navigate and understand the landscape of this new reality, turning over questions that have no clear or easy answer in the way only a very good rabbi can. 
    For thousands of years, the Jewish people have wrestled with what it means to be Jewish. In this often divisive era, Rabbi Cosgrove reminds of how we can come together despite—and even because of—our differences. For Such a Time as This is a guide for a new generation that is reconciling the past with the present and facing the unknown future with courage, spirit, and unwavering hope.
