We could use an example or two of historical incidents which led to reprisals and examples of the reprisals themselves. --Dante Alighieri | Talk 18:49, 4 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Please clarify edit

The statement in the lead of this article..."A legally executed reprisal is not an atrocity" needs clarification. Just what is meant here? What constitutes a "legal" reprisal? Who makes that determination? Dr. Dan (talk) 20:01, 6 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Important Element of Rules of War Missing edit

What happened to verbiage , as alluded in paraphrase similar to thus , " A reprisal includes an action to assure that an illegal act of war would not be again performed . " ?

Where is the verbiage which alludes to forcing an enemy to desist in further illegal action ?

Dachau edit

Could someone invested in this article nip over to the talk page of Dachau liberation reprisals and persuade them that the massacre at Dachau should be called something else - incident, massacre, other - since it was never intended as a reprisal in the legal sense? 174.0.48.147 (talk) 15:18, 11 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
