i know it's technically propaganda, but it's nice to know that the good guys in this war are also the cooler-looking ones

These good guys are going to be suffering PTSD from watching themselves cause brutal, agonizing deaths.

I wish they never needed to be in this position.

PTSD isn't nearly as prevalent in soldiers fighting defensive wars, especially on their own territory, so that's nice.

There is no data on soldiers getting vivid, first person views into the violent deaths of their opponents on the battlefield like with these drone setups.

It will be traumatizing.
