Like with other comments I wrote elsewhere, I voice here a claim that soldiers are not really being privileged for killing people, the point being that military forces as such are not sacred, not void of having a responsibility and accountability of their actions, and not imbued with with some general sacrosanct immunity of critique or shame.

To ask me to simply forgive or accept, for example, the gunning down of a man on a scooter because someone thought it was to the effect of being practical, is simply not acceptable. I just wanted to make that point clear and say that noone should expect me to respect such sentiments perchance wanting to go off onto some blame-game against a single high ranking officer. I am confident the ills start at the squad level as well, they too are interest driven as their leadership is.

I worry that there will be a general belief that a critique of the behaviour of a military force is simply an anti-war-attitude, which is simply not so and would undoubtedly be an unfair characterization of other peoples concern and indignation. In my opinion, there should also be a way of complaining about the real rules and the consequences of engaging in warfare, without defaulting to polarized views presumably loosing focus on important issues.

Common sense surely would have it that in the end, the whole process of warfare is not only complicated, but extend to matters of politics with regional policies. There, I believe are some real challenges to be worked out, and I worry that overlooking these political challenges in the end, will maintain a case for continued recklessness, speculation and cruelty to what I understand are the product of wanting to wage war.
