Description
Definitions :
- conscience : conformity to what one considers to be correct, right, or morally good
- Broadly 2 reasons why soldiers opt out of military operations
A)Religious reasons
This looks like Muslim soldiers Opting out of a mission to raid terrorist hideouts in the Middle East and kill them because they believe that that would be unislamic
B)Political reasons
This looks like soldiers refusing to be deployed in Colombia because they sympathise with communist rebels
