in famous thought experiment, named Trolley problem, do you call yourself murderer (genocider) if you decide to push the lever?
Yes, even if it’s “justified” or “the most moral choice” or “the lesser evil” knowingly killing someone is still murder.
Incidentally, the trolley problem is a poorly made though experiment. The fact that the only way it has to deal with “troll answers” that refuse its attempt to impose a false dichotomy is to say “that’s not allowed” or “just answer the question” should be proof enough that it doesn’t apply to real world “dilemmas” even as a metaphor.
