QUESTION 2

State Responsibility Mr. Z was a national of State X. He worked in State Y as a consultant for the State Y National Railroad. State Y's national government is a military dictatorship. While Mr. Z was riding on a train in State Y, the train was attacked by a group of terrorists from the Idiot Yeehaa ideology. These terrorists are well known rebels in State Y and they cruelly beheaded Mr. Z along with 9 other passengers before the military of State Y were able to subdue the terrorists. No passengers were hurt or killed by the military. State X is alleging that the military of State Y indirectly caused the death of Mr. Z and that the military of State Y should have instead negotiated with the terrorists.
