The tragedy is, to the people calling the shots (ie. the invading military or government), a foreign civilian's life would probably be worth far less than $100,000. As a previous comment notes, civilians killed are thought of as 'collateral'. That's just not acceptable. The burden lies with the occupying/invading forces to do everything possible to make sure civilians aren't killed or harmed in any way. Even actions that would lead to rations being withheld or basic needs not being met could be considered a breach of international humanitarian law and the fourth Geneva Convention. |
