Option 4 : humanity

 jus ad Bellum is occasionally seen as a component of the laws of war. 

  • Jus ad Bellum is a set of standards that should be used to evaluate whether starting a war is legal.
  • The term "laws of war" can also be understood to refer to jus in Bello which asks whether a war is being waged in a just manner. 
  • Principles of jus ad Bellum (just recourse to war) are mentioned below: 
    • Proper authority and public declaration
    • Just cause
    • Probability of success 

Thus, humanity is not a principle of jus ad bellum (just recourse to war).
