29. We agree to disagree, then
By your definition, anyone in any army is complicit in whatever that army does, and so "deserves" to be killed. I disagree with this, as there are too many nuances involved. Besides, who decides who "deserves" killing? Doesn't that definition change depending upon who is talking?

As for fetuses not "deserving" to die--what is your position about it when allowing the fetus to live means the mother will die a slow and painful death? I wouldn't call it "deserving" to die, but there are times when only one being will survive--are you saying that it should always be the fetus, no matter what?
