if and when an autonomous military robot kills a civilian. There are several ways that the political decisions to endorse or deploy these machines are encouraged by the nature of these technologies.

We were going in to help a pinned down division, pinned down by MG-42 fire from the Germans. “Sarge!” I heard cried out. I turned around. “You promise me you’re gonna’ get us through this man.” Private Meadows said lightly. “I cant make no promises, but if you follow my orders and keep your head down, you should get through this fine.” I replied.
