This is fucked up. War is shit but this....this has to be a war crime.
I wouldn't think so. Explain why?
I didn't know why it would be it just feelz wrong. So I googled some things. I guess this kinda fits my feelings of why it would be:
"The action must be necessary to achieve a legitimate military objective. If the retreating soldiers pose no immediate threat or if their destruction does not contribute significantly to the military objective, the use of force might be deemed unnecessary."
But ultimately I think it boils down to war being heinous and I don't like people dying especially by a voiceless, human less, robot RC device. Just feels dystopian.
Don’t imagine its better to be hit by an artillery shell.
Best you can do to avoid both, is to stay in your own country and make sure your diktator og a leader doesn’t start a war.
Actually tre US and mand western countries had same problem in with roadside bombs - war is ugly, but can you blame people defending their country?
