"Hatred" is the wrong term. "Uncaring" is a better one.
And I do differentiate between a defender and an invader, and one who had a choice and one who did not.
So does every soldier. Including enemy soldiers. The thing is I should only care about "my own", right? I don't have to care about "the enemy"?I really don't understand this, from any political viewpoint. One may not agree with the mission a soldier is given, but he has a mother who will grieve.
Even a pacifist values the human life of the military, if not their role.
Shameful is one description. Morally bankrupt is another. I admit to some degree of surprise.
I'm sorry if it bothers you, but I refuse to care about German soldiers who lost their lives in WW2, Vietcong soldiers who lost their lives in the Vietnam war, NATO soldiers who lost their lives in Afghanistan or Taliban soldiers who lost their lives in Afghanistan.
Most people only care about one of those four. I don't see how I'm morally bankrupt or shameful because I don't care about any of them.
