Casualties of legally declared war are not murder victims in any sense.
I'm sure the casualties of legally declared will be very happy to hear that they weren't murdered, Fyron.
Yep, they will. The term Murder has some strong connotations that do not apply in circumstances of legally declared wars. I assume that Tesco knows this, and that is why he chose to use the word Murdered instead of Killed, but it still does not apply.
