War does terrible things to ordinary people.  It provides opportunity for savagery and violence by individuals who are normally confined by social mores and laws.  War can deprive anyone of home, food, security, job, family, belongings, and life itself.  Women and children are especially vulnerable to the ravages of violence.  All people are hostages in one sense or another in times of war.
