Soldiers life threatened by his own side.

RE: Soldiers life threatened by his own side.
What about combat engineers, cooks, etc? They're soldiers too.

What about the majority of soldiers who miss their target? They have committed no murder -- can they be held accountable for an act they did not commit?

What about disaster relief, where the military is used to deploy supplies and assist?

I think your system ignores every subtlety of the military.

They're more than just thugs and guns -- they're a distinguished institution with laws, regulations and a history of ejecting 'unsuitable' candidates (to the point of abuse). But when you look even at that last piece, you see they'd rather have better quality whenever they can get it.

They have support networks so extensive, the very technological developments they've offered have driven our economies.

They contribute more than murder, magnitudes more. And you should recognize that and not paint them all with the criminal brush of the very few.
