Never believe anything reported by armed combatants in war that hasn't been independently verified by journalists, human rights organizations, or other reputable outside agencies. Disinformation is as much a weapon of war as any other machinery of mass destruction.
All killing of civilians is wrong, no matter the demographic background of the civilians in question.
All sexual assault of persons during armed conflict is abhorrent.
All taking of hostages and other prisoners without charges or due process for indefinite lengths of time, is wrong, no matter what 'side' the prisoners / hostages are from.
All denial of food, water, safe shelter, and adequate healthcare to civilians is an abomination.
Never trust anyone, especially any religious leader, who uses ancient Scripture or tradition to justify modern-day atrocities.
