There is nothing in ANC policy which calls for attacks on civilians in supermarkets, schools, and cinemas unless these are regarded as military installations.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No, the United States does not target civilians.
It is a rule of international law that weapons and methods of warfare which do not discriminate between combatants and civilians should never be used.
It's never acceptable to target civilians. It violates the Geneva Accords, it violates the international law of war and it violates all principles of morality.
We don't go to war to protect Pizza Hut or Burger King or some other things, some of the nonsense I've seen on our battlefields.
Indiscriminate attacks on civilians ought, under all circumstances, to be illegal in war as in peacetime.
If you shell a military base and happen to kill civilians, you have not committed a war crime; if you deliberately target cities and towns, you have.
You've got to forget about this civilian. Whenever you drop bombs, you're going to hit civilians.
Whether it's at a concert in France or a restaurant in the United States, terrorism doesn't have to happen in a military installation by any stretch of the imagination.
We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbour them.
When it comes to civilian deaths, violent hostilities play no favorites.
