Of central importance in understanding Phoenix is that it targeted
civilians, not guerrilla soldiers. This means that the program violated
that part of the Geneva Conventions guaranteeing protection to civilians in
time of war. If the Union Army during the US Civil War had a Phoenix-type
program, its targets would have included Confederate politicians,
office-holders, and directors of their postal service, school system,
railroads, doctors, nurses, teachers, etc.
