The law of war governs conduct during armed conflict, regardless of whether or not a formal declaration of war exists or how disproportionate said conflict is

Some things require more than just the perceived wishes of a single madman, or the world as we know it would have already been destroyed several times over.

You are, objectively, not your mind. The brain is just another organ that specifically evolved to better help your “bone prison” survive. That it sometimes comes with unpleasant side-effects like existential dread is a trade-off that was deemed acceptable thousands of years before you came to existence and one which you have entirely no control over.

Why does random lemmy user care what you came here for?

Hey Goosebumps are great

This is a dictionary definition. Non-combatant ISIS members are also civilians. Whether they deserve to die or not has no legal bearing. Im unsure why that is considered controversial.

I enjoy the social aspect of running. Parkruns, Strava, meeting friends and getting coffee after etc.

This is not the legal definition of civilian.

He is by definition a civilian that was murdered. Legal definitions do not care about our political opinions. It appears to be very likely he was a civilian who deserved to be murdered but that does not change the definition

Nah. It’s very easy to argue that murder is ethically wrong or unjustified but it certainly is effective.

I mean he’s still a civilian and it it’s still murder but yeah hard to feel sad about it

You think they’ll stand up for Palestinians when they won’t for their own diplomats?
