You would rather more innocent civilians die than less in a far less violent and much faster way?

I believe we should avoid civilian casualties whenever possible, most people seem to agree when it comes to the discussions of WWII, but you have to be a fool to be stubborn and stick to morals that clearly result in more innocents dying.

The moment you decide that civilians are legitimate targets of warfare, you legitimize all of the atrocities committed by your enemy. Even the holocaust was done for a misguided sense of a greater good. That logic extends all the way to "If we just kill everyone who isn't us, then we'll end war forever!"
