    I can kinda get it not being “murderous”. When civilians are killed while in the middle of a war, it’s not considered murder, it’s considered a war crime. It’s a technicality, but that’s how words work.

    But I’m not sure how you can say it isn’t brutal. Of course it’s brutal.

      I haven’t read this, but yeah… War is brutal by nature, so to call it anything else is a flat out lie
