Warfare, in general, is a dirty business but civilized people have set up guidelines in the Geneva conventions as to what is and is not acceptable. Shooting an enemy with a FMJ bullet is concidered acceptable, i.e. clean, efficient and not meant to cause undue pain and suffering. Hacking off heads with machetes is not acceptable.
