The article addresses the concept of genocide, emphasizing that it should not be treated merely as a word, but rather as a crime with serious legal and moral implications.

The text establishes a fundamental distinction between military intent and genocidal intent, suggesting that these two types of intent should not be confused. This distinction is presented as probably the most important one in the entire debate on the subject.

The article appears to be an introductory reflection on the legal definition of genocide and the criteria that distinguish different types of intentions in armed conflicts.
