520			_aHuman nature, regardless of how we perceive it, whether from an ethical or psychological standpoint, is arguably such that it prevents the overwhelming majority of people from killing other humans. This causes significant problems for military organizations. As technology and science have evolved in the past century, killing has become easier, and we have found ways to bypass our inhibitions against killing. This article investigates and reviews how killing has become so effortless, and demonstrates why military ethics must continue to develop to ensure that killing is done only when it ought to be done. It also aims to explain why military ethics must be given a central position in military systems, and how detrimental it would be for military ethics to continue to be depreciated and disregarded by military leaders. Never before in the history of warfare has military ethics been so vitally significant, simply because never in history have war and killing in war been so easy.
