In a clear message to those who wage war, those who occupy and those who have detainees,[prisoners], in their keeping, Jakob Kellenberger stressed that international humanitarian law must be respected at all times.
He said he was convinced it was possible to ensure the security of a state, [? resource wars in the Middle East], without violating basic humanitarian laws.
He said a territory could be controlled while still respecting its population and that it was possible to detain people without threatening their physical and psychological integrity.
His speech reflects mounting concern within the ICRC that the war on terror [The Coalition of the Killing's resource wars in the Middle East], is eroding respect for human rights.
