It’s one thing for states to do nothing, but they proactively make matters far worse. States do not allow mercenaries. This is U.N. law! Being a mercenary is a crime, forbidden by international law.

Such a prohibition amounts to an international law against gun-carry. The people being killed off in a genocide can’t even (legally) hire other people to come to their defense. They can’t even (legally) receive foreign nationals as voluntary fighters on their behalf. The result is that any state wanting to commit genocide has a green light. It doesn’t have to worry about mercenaries or other privateers coming into the country.
