The ability to remotely kill and then go home to your family has to make the impact on operators (the ones with a conscience) so much worse.  
The buffer time of a flight back from a real deployment, however short, at least seems like it&#x27;d provide some time for reflection&#x2F;rationalization&#x2F;compartmentalization.<p>The fact that these operators get shit on by their associates for being out of harm&#x27;s way and expressing reservations about their mission can&#x27;t be helping either.
