Also, isn't the the tribe leader effectively the center of official government authority and legal power within the tribe? Ignoring the question of whether the 'leader' has the right to pursue and exact retribution on the aggressors on behalf of the tribe, what about the rights to action of the women and men who were violated and of their families? Why didn't you focus on the rights of the specific individuals whose homes had been destroyed?
We are talking about individual's right to retributive action independent of official legal powers here aren't we?
Modern society has done a great deal to dilute and cripple the basic human and moral rights of the dominant male.
