Ya know, the idea that we can have a "controlled war" or "moderated war" is a very modern idea. All throughout history people have never done that, or shown much motivation for it. It's just a contemporary notion that one can wage a "civil" war that's come from the "self-esteem" hand holding society we run these days. War is hell. No amount of Geneva Conventions or Rules will change it. It some ways, it should not be changed.
