"Women have always been the primary victims of war. Women lose their husbands, their fathers, their sons in combat. Women often have to flee from the only homes they have ever known. Women are often the refugees from conflict and sometimes, more frequently in today’s warfare, victims. Women are often left with the responsibility, alone, of raising the children." - Hillary Rodham Clinton

What about the husbands, fathers and sons who are killed? Are they secondary victims, or do they not count once they're dead??
