Add the racial and religious component, and it makes me really really uneasy (not that I'm saying that their actions were deliberate based on race and religion, it just adds another level of squickiness to it).

Anyone with common sense knows that they can't just roll up to another country, no matter what condition the place is in, and take some kids. What made these people so special that the rules didn't apply to them?
