I get your point Helmut. And it is valid. But we all know how these sort of things like to get out of hand. Someone shoots a civilian and claims afterwards it was a partisan. Someone shoots a soldier and claims he killed civilians. Shooting a partisan is fine with me. It's the countermeasures for a shot soldier I am afraid of.

When I saw the partisan shooting. Or there is some other clear evidence. Shooting them during action is ok. But not lining them up and executing them. There is no black or white in that case.

"Next day you capture the partisans who are responsible. What would you do?"


It's hard to say. Infact I can't answer that question. I've never been in such a situation and hopefully never will be.

My point is, that even if they are not protected by the GC it should not be an excuse to execute them. Two wrongs don't make a right.
