Yes Ted, dead is dead, but don't you agree that the moral responsibility of the murderer or terrorist is different then the moral responsibility of someone trying to kill terrorists who accidently kills a third party? Murder is different then accidental death. Both should be avoided of course but the distinction between the two is important.

>This notion that some deaths are more noble than others is one way people minimize the bad aspects of war.........personally, I think its bs. This war is sh*t period.

Death is never "good". Sometimes it's necessary though.

A great quote from former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir, though perhaps I'm butchering it... it was to the effect of, "I hope to someday forgive the Arabs for killing our children... I will just never forgive them for making us kill theirs."
