You seem to have this notion that I have to justify my beliefs to you.
You're just wasting your time with posts like these.

I'm pro "killing these civillans/soldiers ruthlessly"

Is war really something to be pro? That's like saying you are pro-AIDS or pro-Mass Murder.
Does that make much sense?
Being pro-AIDS entirely different than being pro-war.
At any rate, I can't justify the pros of any war because no number of pros for any way will ever equal the number of lives lost in a war.
Wars (for the most part) start when a group of people (usually oppressed) rise up and strike against their oppressors.
Think of nations that gained their independence through war. They killed people and in their minds it was justified.
Think of Native American Indians that killed the "white man" because they invaded their land and took it away from him.
Are you trying to say that if someone invaded your house you wouldn't try to kill them to protect yourself?
Same difference only in a war more people die.

And I can honestly say that if intruders (armed or otherwise) entered my home and I was all alone, my first instinct would be to shoot first and ask questions later.

As for mass murder. . .
There's is never really any justification for it unless the culprit(s) get by on an insanity plea. So still your pushing it with that example.
