You are a general in your nation's Armed Forces. A smaller, weaker neighboring nation is currently ruled by a tyrannical dictator who despises your people. He has rounded up all of your people that reside in his nation and has begun to exterminating them. Despite the brutality of this violence, the international community does nothing. Their attentions are focused elsewhere and don't particularly care that millions of your people are being exterminated in a neighboring country. Even your own government seems disinterested in doing anything--it's corrupt politicians offering vague condemnations while being more interested in robbing your country blind instead of stopping the destruction of their own people.
The soldiers under your command disagree vehemently. They are up in arms and are pressuring you to order an intervention without official sanction. Your troops have vowed to follow you all the way through if you do. The forces under your command are more than enough to smash your neighbor's entire army. Your troops are better equipped, better trained, and have cutting-edge tech compared to your neighbors who are using antiquated equipment and are largely filled with poorly-trained conscripts. Several of your fellow generals have requested permission to intervene and stop the massacre, but all have been denied. Your government seems content to sit on it's hands as your people are butchered.
You have the power to stop this, but it requires disobeying direct orders not to do so. You risk court-martial at best and starting a coup/civil at worst. But doing nothing means your people over the border could be exterminated. No one else wishes to stop the bloodshed. Do you? What will you do? Will you risk your job--the stability or your country--in order to save the lives of your people? Or will you, too, turn a blind eye to the plight of millions of innocents?
