May I also throw a spanner into the works....

Even during coalition ops, different nations adhere to different Rules of Engagement. If a multi-national armed force is raised, which Nations' laws do they fight to? The argument that "I was only following orders" does not hold water these days, and therefore I suspect that ROEs would be very watered down to cover the legal requirements of all member states.

Just a thought.....
