It's weird how the term PC gets thrown around. It's often used as a straw man, something with no real power that one rails against.
Killing is serious business, whether or not you think the other people deserve it.
I haven't met the average pansy civilian you mention. Civilians are trained too, to have an attitude that whatever any soldier does is OK simply because he's a soldier. Most of the people I know, "SUV drivers," military people, or those who fit both categories simultaneously, tend to have more complex opinions on these many wars, and the motivations behind them, than rhetoricians would have you believe.
At least we're calling them wars now, instead of "police actions," a PC term if ever there was one.
