For example, one kills ten Kurds not because they are obnoxious or because the perpetrator has strong feelings against each of them taken individually, but only because they are Kurds; by killing those ten persons he intends to contribute to the destruction of the group as such.
Por ejemplo, alguien mata a diez kurdos no porque sean molestos o porque el perpetrador abrigue sentimientos intensos contra cada uno de ellos tomados individualmente, sino sólo porque son kurdos; al matar a esas diez personas, se propone contribuir a la destrucción del grupo como tal.
