<reasoning>

Analyze the first definition

The first statement describes a rule prohibiting means of war that are "wrong in themselves (or mala in se)". This corresponds directly to the principle of intrinsically evil means (mala in se).

Analyze the second definition

The second statement stipulates that in the conduct of conflict, violence should be focused on limited objectives. This represents the principle of proportionality, which balances the military necessity of an action against its expected collateral damage or overall destruction.

Analyze the third definition

The third statement requires that noncombatants and nonmilitary targets not be intentionally attacked. This is the definition of the principle of discrimination (or distinction), which separates combatants from noncombatants.
