So the prior knowledge of collateral damage isn't a reality?
Again, you are entitled to your own opinion on the meaning of life, but not anyone else's reality.
Another example of gray would be the phrase 'one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter'. Many of those bad guys we are trying to kill in Af-Pac were referred to as freedom fighters in the 1980's.
Despite "dead or alive", "they hate us for our freedoms", and "axis of evil" there's lot's of gray areas in the war on terror.
Knowing thousands and thousands of children will be burned to death and destroyed in a war is different because one specific child is not the "target"... therefore there lives are ours to take at will
But when a woman opts to have an abortion that's one person attacking another person specifically
Plus the children killed in wars over there believe in a different God making them disposable
