3. I disagree
It would be much easier for an a guy sitting at a computer screen to turn a machine gun on a crowd than a soldier to do it in person. I can see a future where operations are carried out from a central location where the enemy is nothing but a blip to be eliminated. War should not be a video game

I know it is hard to find morality in warfare but removing the human element from a mission that will become more and more killing poor rag-tag militants is a step in the wrong direction. Remember, if they can do it to them they could do it to us.
