So, going back to Colin's argument, you do realize you're talking about remote controlled weapons on both sides. Apparently remote controlled weapons are not cowardly or at least more morally justified, as long as they're on the "right" side. So by extension, a tactic can rely on what cause it serves for justification. That avenue pretty much leads to "just warfare" being a matter of subjective point of view.

I guess the argument is, as long as we're the ones using them, the ends do justify the means...we're not violating civilized norms, so it's all okay...

I agree though. I find nothing immoral with their use.
