This is, actually, an absurd opinion. Massive civilian casualties are inseparable from war, and you will be hard pressed to find a war without them.

The laws of war are built around, and exist because of, this assumption. They exist to give a framework that sets forth principles by which the loss of life can be evaluated.

Otherwise, by your definition, every warring faction ever is a war criminal.

Omg what if it's a feature not a bug, a coded script as a defence against non Dr. Prescriptions.

The existence of legible doctors disproves it, but I enjoyed the thought enough to share.

Many dual citizens pay double taxes in some way or another.

Also, some countries are vindictive towards those who renounce their citizenship and make it very hard for such persons to enter, which is a pretty big deal for anyone leaving friends and family behind.

Other countries don't allow for revoking citizenship whatsoever.

One reason to allow dual citizenship is to encourage immigration, especially of in-demand professionals who would otherwise be quite deterred by a one way ticket.

I don't agree with the thinking behind this, but note this cuts both ways - international agreements have many provisions to prevent statelessness.

So the state can now strip a dual citizen of their German citizenship, whereas before once someone chose German citizenship both the state and person are stuck with each other.

It's amazing how hard this is. Once I started working on it I realized how much of the time I am just running a search of something in my experience that is somehow related, instead of actually listening and thinking of follow up questions. Once you start getting better at it you start realizing how often others have the same challenge.

Super valuable skill and habit to learn. Good luck to us both.
