Yes, so laying down one's life to protect the innocent is less holy than champagne socialism. :) ^_^
No wars are about protecting the lives of the innocent anymore.
The vast majority of those who have been killed in the Western invasions of Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya were innocent. The vast majority of those who would die if Narendra Modi launched a war to take Kashmir or to undo the existence of Pakistan-just as would be the case if Pakistan ever launched a military offensive against India-would be innocent.
There are no wars anywhere anymore where the killing is righteous. There haven't been any since VE Day. And there are no religions which are any more deserving of violent suppression than any others. All religions are equally bad and good in their effects on the human race.
And there's nothing "champagne" about regarding war as something the world needs to be done with. hundreds of millions, perhaps billions of people around the planet want the very concept of war to be a thing of the past.
