A Long Way Gone

in chapter 14 , At one point, the lieutenant tells them, “We are not like the rebels, those riffraffs who kill people for no reason” (p. 123). Is this true?

No this isn't true. Both sides kill for little reason. Atrocities were committed by both sides in this war. It was just convenient to treat each other as a lawless enemy.
