Not a straightforward one size fits all answer, could easily be murder if you’re killing unarmed prisoners of war but kill the same people in combat defending your country then it’s fully justified.

If all rules of engagement are adhered to, no.

If you want examples of murder - look to the likes of Mengele, Grese or Kajuga.

" Armed forces is it murder in war or justifyed , those with experience please Explain "

War is what happens when people stand up to a strong force and say that their fight is more important than life. If the instigator isn’t forced into it then they are wrong. Fighting is common in nature and group dynamics are common in nature. It’s unfortunate that we’ve brought technology into our fights it should go back to the days of swords and shields on designated grounds. Destruction of civilisations is not justified.

You're asking those with what is a potentially deeply traumatic experience in taking life to explain why they think they're not a murderer. I understand civilian naivety around the subject, but I'd advise not asking any serving or former member of the armed forces that kind of question. Do some reading around rules of engagement and international law to satisfy your curiosity. I'd also suggest there are better forums to be asking this kind of question.

Dumb or silly. So you’d rather be subject to the authority of an organisation such as the Gestapo and taking your chances with surviving torture. Happy days.

All deaths are homicides. Justifiable deaths in combat are lawful homicide, not murder.

The common law definition of murder is the unlawful killing of another with malice aforethought.

Thread closed ok thank you i will look these rules up and who decided them and whn or they set in stone or do these rule become fluid"

There is no fluidity, the rules are pretty clear, most people never forget them either.

Off the top of my head:-

Guidance does not affect your right to self defence, in all situations you are to use no more force than necessary.

You may only open fire against a person if they are about to commit or are committing an act likely to endanger life and there is no other way to prevent danger.

When guarding property lethal force can only be used for the protection of human life.

A challenge must be given before firing, unless:-

To do so.would increase the risk of death or injury to you or any other person, or, you or others in the immediate vacinity are under attack.

You should challenge by shouting Navy/Army/Air Force stop or I fire.

If you do open fire, use only aimed shots, fire no more rounds than are necessary and take all precautions not to injure anyone other than your target.

Get down to your local travel agent and look at Tel Aviv this time of year.

Perhaps take a leisurely drive to the med and stop for drinks in Gaza.

You may find the time to relax and ask the locals some questions about war and morality.

Please be patient as the answer will not be as straightforward as some of them on here!

Good luck and remember the travel insurance.

Well Hamas are the non state actors of Palestine, as Hezbollah are for Lebanon. It just expands your question even more.

If you were to sit down and ask an Israeli or member of the IDF about murder after what has happened to their state (whether you agree/disagree recognise/resent) I think you would get a fairly straightforward and resounding answer. Question that answer and the travel insurance would come in handy for your repatriation.

" Armed forces is it murder in war or justifyed , those with experience please Explain

If the international rules of engagement are followed then no.

Thread closed ok thank you i will look these rules up and who decided them and whn or they set in stone or do these rule become fluid

There is no fluidity, the rules are pretty clear, most people never forget them either.

Off the top of my head:-

Guidance does not affect your right to self defence, in all situations you are to use no more force than necessary.

You may only open fire against a person if they are about to commit or are committing an act likely to endanger life and there is no other way to prevent danger.

When guarding property lethal force can only be used for the protection of human life.

A challenge must be given before firing, unless:-

To do so.would increase the risk of death or injury to you or any other person, or, you or others in the immediate vacinity are under attack.

You should challenge by shouting Navy/Army/Air Force stop or I fire.

If you do open fire, use only aimed shots, fire no more rounds than are necessary and take all precautions not to injure anyone other than your target.

"

You're not going to get a more rational, factual and detailed answer than this OP.

Context is so important if you want to ask a question like this, and you haven't provided any. What goes around, comes around.

Sagittarius A

It depends on the order and the legal status of the war internationally.

IMT Charter (Nuremberg)

Article 8 of the 1945 IMT Charter (Nuremberg) provides:

The fact that the Defendant acted pursuant to order of his Government or of a superior shall not free him from responsibility, but may be considered in mitigation of punishment if the Tribunal determines that justice so requires.

A soldier has a responsibility to refuse orders that constitute a crime against humanity.

Levels of subjectivity on that definition I am sure.

The Munich Agreement was a case of ‘ok now Herr Hitler, you can keep what you’ve taken up to now, just promise to keep your sticky fingers to yourself from now on.’

Vastly different to an agreement of steps to be taken by both sides and voted in by large majorities.

Look up the international law of arms conflict law. Its about 2000 pages of international law that all armies have to able by.

As for armies killing their own people thats totally different to a war.

Are you asking? You don't seem very receptive to those more knowledgeable with experience on the subject as you seem to already have pre formed ideas.

pre formed idea comes from the lack of explanation on war documentaries

No, it should not come under war crimes. Aside posted a brief overview of the ROE above, excerpt below.

Guidance does not affect your right to self defence, in all situations you are to use no more force than necessary.

You may only open fire against a person if they are about to commit or are committing an act likely to endanger life and there is no other way to prevent danger.

When someone shot at me, I shot back, self defence, and to not shoot back would have endangered my life and others. I am afforded protection under the rules of engagement, therefore not a war crime.

Murder is unlawful killing. If it’s done under the ROE it’s not unlawful. Therefore it’s not murder.

Obviously depending upon the dangers they pose because you/they're trying to protect lives by common law a conflict of interest

What a bloody daft question. I will reply as nicely as possible.

If someone was shooting at me when I was a soldier, then I'd happily return fire.

If that means that they died then they should have known better than to open fire on the British Army.

They will be treated with as much extreme prejudice as the ROE's allowed as a consequence of their actions.

All prisoners taken are treated under the rules of the Geneva Convention by the British Army unless they were to break it by then using weapons against the soldiers that have captured them. They are then treated as armed combatants and as such are then neutralised in whatever way necessary.

It comes down to basics, if you're being shot at, then it's kill or be killed.
