When the war is continuous there is no thing as military necessity.
Would you explain the bold text?
Thank you |

There seems to be something wrong with your sentence. Is a word missing? Should it read When the war is continuous there is no such thing as military necessity?
Military necessity means the necessity to use military force, I suppose-- but I don't really understand the statement.
