On Killing
20th–21st century
About
There is a deep, innate resistance in most human beings to killing their own kind, and the whole history of military training is the engineering of ways around it. Distance is the oldest of those ways — it is far easier to kill at range than face to face. What do you think it costs a person, inwardly, to kill from ten thousand miles away?
