In light of Israel's ongoing war on terrorism, the current U.S.-Iraq war, and international law, the annual meeting of the Orthodox Forum in March 2004 addressed the questions asked since biblical times of when war is justified and once justified, how war must ethically be conducted. Schiffman (Hebrew and Judaic studies, New York U.) and Wolowelsky (Yeshivah of Flatbush High School, Brooklyn, NY) have compiled 13 papers on these pressing issues from Christian just war theory, Halakhah (traditional Jewish religious law), historical, and diverse contemporary Jewish perspectives.
