There's a practicality here. I think the international community has made some judgments here. Even though the definition of a child is anybody under the age of 18, they also recognize the fact that military forces recruit people younger than that.
But they certainly have come to a consensus that anybody who's 15 years of age and younger is a child, and it doesn't matter what the situation is. There is a floor. In fact, it's important for this esteemed committee to consider the case of the prosecutor versus Hinga Norman, the prosecutor being me. They ruled in the appellate decision that the concept of the unlawful recruitment of children under the age of 15 is now customary international law and has been--since crystallizing their customary international law--since 1994, and it has said it is a crime against humanity.
Of course, all of the international tribunals follow each other's jurisprudence. So we now have a legal standard by which we now review these cases, and the international tribunal--the Special Court for Sierra Leone--was the first of those tribunals to do that. It was a clarion call stating that individuals who cause these children to be placed in situations to kill should be held accountable as a crime against humanity.
