Original Note:
Despite author's claim, the majority of the colonizers or settlers are civilians. Settlers, like any other civilians, cannot be targeted and only lose their protection from attack if and for such time as they take a direct part in hostilities, per the Fourth Geneva Convention https://casebook.icrc.org/case-study/amnesty-international-breach-principle-distinction
