Technological progress or retrogression?

1. The technology of the United States five years ago can achieve precision strikes, which is shocking.
2. Reflection on human nature. From the perspective of God, kill terrorists, that's right. But God cannot control human activities. After the missile strikes precisely 10 seconds later, innocent children suddenly break into the target area. What is the difference between doing so and terrorists? . . . . . This is a great torture to the human soul.

From the standpoint of the military, this is right.
From the standpoint of innocent victims, who will bear this responsibility?

    OK, all ethical issues are discussed, but there is no strong drama and climax.

Good Kill quotes

  • Tom Egan: I feel like a coward. Every day. Taking pot shots half a world away, sitting in an air-conditioned cubicle.

  • Jack Johns: The folks from Virginia operate under a different set of ROEs. They've progressed from what they like to call a "personality strike", where we know for sure the target is a fucking bad guy, and have come up with something they call a "signature strike". And what that fucking means is it's a hit based not on a suspicion of guilt, but on a pattern of behavior. So you may be called upon to fire on any dumb schlub in Waziristan carrying an AK-47, even though we all know that everyone and their mother in Waziristan carries an AK-47.
