Battlefield euthanasia — courageous

Battlefield euthanasia — courageous compassion or war crime?

Doctors’ obligations in war — the laws of armed conflict
As with civil society, war is governed by rules. Australia is a
signatory to the Geneva Conventions, which are binding. The
actions and responsibilities of doctors are covered in the special
provisions of the Conventions, and form the basis of ethical
military medical practice.2,21 In essence, there are three conditions:
• first, doctors may not partake in direct combat activities;
• second, doctors must treat all casualties of war on the basis of
medical priority without regard for their status as enemy, coalition
or civilian; and
• third, doctors have a moral responsibility to speak out against
atrocities committed by any party.
The Geneva Conventions (First Geneva Convention, Articles 12
and 15; Second Geneva Convention, Articles 12 and 18; Protocol
1, Article 10 and Protocol 2, Article 7) prohibit euthanasia.
Doctors serving with the Australian Defence Force are governed
by both Australian military regulations and Status of Forces
Agreements, making them accountable for acts committed on
overseas territory or involving foreign nationals.22 Australian
nationals serving in overseas conflict may equally be accountable
to that nation’s legislation. Australian legislation (Euthanasia Laws
Act 1997 [Cwlth]), while allowing for palliative care and withdrawal
of life-prolonging treatment, prohibits intentional killing of
a patient.23
