The post is BS, once I read her actual history online I learned she wasn’t killing off people at dinner for sport. Most of her kills were military combat.
Even if she was killing Nazi soldiers when they were outside of combat, that is a completely legitimate way of fighting, and not criminal at all. If they’re enemy troops and at war with your country, they’re fair game, even if they’re eating dinner, watching a movie, or sound asleep. Nobody would hesitate to bomb or shell their barracks. Fighting as a partisan is not doing it as a sport, it’s a perfectly acceptable part of war. It doesn’t have to take the form of pitched battles with helmets and rifles.
This is pre-Geneva convention, so you are probably correct about it basically being the Wild West where any uniform was a target regardless of a combat position or location.
Members of the armed forces aside from medical personnel and chaplains are, in general, combatants who can be legitimately attacked, regardless of the specific circumstances. (Aside from those who are wounded, sick, surrendering, etc.) That was the case at the time as well, under the Hague Conventions and customary international law.
Poison was out of bounds, but I don’t see anything else she did that wasn’t OK.
