Code of the United States Fighting Force: The Code of the U.S. Fighting Force is a code of conduct that is an ethics guide and a United States Department of Defense directive consisting of six articles to members of the United States Armed Forces, addressing how they should act in combat when they must evade capture, resist while a prisoner or escape from the enemy.

He is currently James Bar Ames Professor of Law, Emeritus at Harvard Law School, where he has taught (with interruptions for government service) since 1969.

Colombia–United States relations: Colombia–United States relations are the bilateral relations between the Republic of Colombia and the United States of America.  The relationship between the two states evolved from mutual cordiality during most of the 19th and early 20th centuries to a recent partnership that links the governments of both nations around several key issues; this includes fighting communism, the War on Drugs, and the threat of terrorism due to the September 11 attacks in 2001.  During the last fifty years, different American governments and their representatives have become involved in Colombian affairs through the implementation of policies concerned with the issues already stated.  Some critics of current US policies in Colombia, such as Law Professor John Barry, claim that US influences have catalyzed internal conflicts and substantially expanded the scope and nature of human rights abuses in Colombia.  Supporters, such as Under Secretary of State Marc Grossman, defend the idea that the United States has promoted respect for human rights and the rule of law in Colombia; in addition, adding to the fight against drugs and terrorism.

Bush first used the term ""war on terrorism"" on 16 September 2001, and then ""war on terror"" a few days later in a formal speech to Congress.  In the latter speech, George Bush stated, "Our enemy is a radical network of terrorists and every government that supports them."  The term was originally used with a particular focus on countries associated with al-Qaeda.  The term was immediately criticised by such people as Richard B.
