It is set in the USA, you are an American and the USA is involved in a number of wars abroad against developing countries. You are just going on about your own life but something goes wrong. One day a demon comes to you and forces you to choose between two options and they are both bad:
Option 1:
1 American civilian girl dies immediately (if you did not choose this option, the civilian girl is left to live her normal life for however long it lasts)
or
Option 2:
10 American soldiers die immediately while stationed in a foreign country where US forces are fighting (if you did not choose this option, the soldiers are left to live their normal lives for however long these lives last)
There's another fact that I forgot to mention:
You have repeatedly been told by both the news, movies, your parents, your teachers, and your peers that under no circumstances should the killing of civilians be acceptable; you are fully aware (and well-immersed) in international law principles and conventions surrounding war crimes (but you don't have to agree with these points of view of course.... moving on).
Discuss:
1. Which option do you choose? Do you save the civilian girl or the 10 soldiers?
2. How do you justify your choice?
