Isn't there something vaguely pagan and talismanic about the inscriptions?

Onward Christian soldiers marching off to war! It has been a battle cry for 1700 years. The gun incident doesn't surprise but that some Christians think it is OK does. It is completely at odds with the Christian message.
It is pretty hard (impossible) to not be in sin when you pull a trigger that results in somebodies body being killed.
Perhaps "Thou shalt not kill" should be inscribed in big orange letters if it is a killing instrument made in a "Christian Nation". An IR scope that locks the trigger is a warm body is detected. Then you would need to bank-shot the bullet to kill a person. Is winging a person legal for a Christian. Say in self defense you remove part of one of their limbs and then when they could no longer hurt you you bandaged them up so they would not die. Is maiming for life part of the do no harm law? (in self-defense only)
Can we just assume there were many over the whole period that 'organized wars' existed?
That would have to be defensive, like inside your own borders, trapsing halfway around the world to engage in battle is not self defense. Ask anybody that knows anything about 'assaults' and ask them if you can beat up a person because (you say without proof) they 'might' be thinking of taking your lawn-mower. If you caught them on your property then you could use force only long enough to see them start to leave. You cannot follow them home, break-in, tie them up for an extended period of time, and torture them while living off their food and water. Any idea how much your Lawyer would cost you to get away with that?
Ah but the circumvention of that rule has been very nicely built by todays sinners.
Remember preemptive defense. War is most definitely murder Colpy, I'm surprised you think differently. But such is the way of the sinner.
The correct words for a Christian is along the lines, "Go forth and build road for there are multitudes to follow." ........ That'll be $50 ....... Each.Any Taliban caught in a Canadian sniper's sight is about to "go and sin no more", saying it would be redundent.
Circumvention of that rule? I don't think so. It's more like a lousy Church translation that makes murder over into kill. Anything to create guilt and fill Church coffers....
Only Bankers have coffers, and they don't tolerate opposition, from anybody, even God since they do not obey one rule He laid down.
You make the common mistake of equating international relations with criminal law.
The two have absolutely nothing to do with each other.
BTW, I consider the entire "issue" of putting biblical quotes on gunsights to be in bad taste, mildly offensive.....I consider the uproar over it to be silly, and spending money to replace the sights idiotic...Big Deal!
Not at all.
But you are correct, I consider most accusations of "war crimes" to be merely promotion of a specific agenda.........on one side or the other, and they rarely are connected to the reality of warfare.
Genocide is a war crime.
Torture is a war crime.
Violations of treaties that require reciprocal (key word) standards for treatment of prisoners are war crimes.
That's about it.
