The thing is here and you have to face it. The prospect of a humane war may be hideous and all the other names you can think of, but it's still a prospect.

“I think what'll happen in the not-too-distant future is that we'll have humane wars.”

Don DeLillo книга End Zone

In other words, we'll get together with them beforehand and there'll be an agreement that if the issue can't be settled, whatever the issue might be, then let's make sure we keep our war as relatively clean as possible.
