In a normal population, 50% of the population are women.

In the US (and other places), 20% of the population are also children.

VOILA. Do anything to any country ever, and you can magically say 70% of this thing are women and children!!

I mean, it's a genocide. But there being women and children doesn't make it different. They're killing everybody. Taking men out of the equation doesn't make it worse unless you're one of those types.

You're not using full logic on this, you're just looking at numbers. Consider why this number is strange.
