While it is true that many will absolve the decision makers without thinking, or with thoughts of revenge, a deeper analysis shows that it was a reasonable decision. You write them off as "strongly, strongly taboo". Is that as far as that goes then? Wasn't everything, starting with Pearl Harbor, strongly, strongly taboo? Is it ok to murder someone just because they are in a uniform, because two humans, who we will call "kings", or "emperors", or "presidents" have a disagreements? Bottom line you're walking into a moral discussion about war with the idea "killing is bad". Think you need to up your game.
