During the Second World War a great deal was made about the inhumanity of such things as the V2 rocket. I fail to see how it differs greatly from the Tomahawk cruise missile. When we are being magnanimous in war then we apply sanctions against our enemies. This of course is supposed to anger the people so that they will rise up against their leaders. Never mind that our audience is starving and powerless and that we had broken promises to aid them when their stomachs were full and they still trusted us.
War is over.
It has been since the first person was killed by a thrown rock. Nobody wants to die for their country regardless of what they may say. Bad soldiers believe that they are invincible and good soldiers stay away from the fighting. With the advance of technology we have all been drafted into the world's armies as bad soldiers. We cannot stay out of the reach of modern weapons and we are certain that we cannot be killed.
