It looks like murder to you because you don't understand the definition of murder.
Murder requires an unlawful killing. Laws are made by governments, they are not what you think should be law based on your own feelings. No law was broken by the natives, thus this was a killing not a murder.
That's the last time I'm going to try to help you understand basic terms, continue to show your ignorance if you must - but I'm 99% sure you wouldn't be spewing any of your nonsense if this weren't an anonymous forum.

I'm sure there would be Sintinelese out there, that do speak more than one language.

You're right -laws can be whatever governments say they are.

I stand by my views, and would have no issue putting them forth if the matter arose

You make this too personal - a quality I have little time for, in debate

Attempts at getting a population count, turn out to be little more than speculation, and as individuals, they're probably are healthy - but they should still be taught that killing unarmed people, isn't civilized.
They have no transportation to get to another island.

All the unarmed people have to do is stay away from the island.

Are you just guessing at this point, because you seem to know very little about these people. They speak their own language and there is no one who knows it, or who could translate. So again, how would you go to their village and teach them that killing is against your moral code?

I'm not into resorts, but if people want to go to visit, or work in them, that's their business.
Sort of how anyone who wants to visit or work in the USA has that right too?

There are not many of them left so doubt they have a government per se , probably more a consensus rule amount the tribe.

As far as vaccines go, just how many diseases would they need for all the diseases they have no immunity? Probably many more that the typical western needs. You are all for individual rights as long it is the rights of the non villagers. The man three times tried to illegally land, twice turned back by threats and the third time was killed.

People are smarter than that and they would improvise, or else they run a oppressive system that seeks to stifle those who want to explore.

Than explain why the experts in indigenous tribes say they have no way to communicate with them?

Where are these former Sentinelese that speak more than one language, and why aren't they stepping forward to help the experts speak with them?

Killing them at the border, wouldn't be right.

It's a reserve (zoo) -they don't want to communicate with them
