Yes, as you point out so well, the killing of anyone on the other side
started with WWII. This was done because it became possible to do, not
because any attitude had changed. Although bombs can be better
targeted, this does not mean anyone is trying to save noncombatants.

It "no longer" makes such a distinction?

Interesting point. But electricity was relatively expensive too. Not sure how

Sorry - Kyle is doing such a good job that I hate to interrupt... But I see
the use of the word "outrage" once again.
The word "outrage" is probably one of the most prolific words in use these
days, and frankly, I'm tired of it. If you (I assume), Kyle (permit me) or

drove far. For a trip over 20 miles they would take the train

I can sympathize with your sense of outrage. However, are you willing to
acknowledge the sense of outrage that also exists on the other side
