And there's nobody on the other end, doing the killing, who experiences actually taking that life and watching the victim suffer; there's no accountability. The person killed by a Tomahawk might not ever even be known.
My own opinion is that they cruel nature of a deliberate beheading imparts a depravity not seen in most bombstrikes, for instance.
Both suck, I suppose, but I know very few people who wish to ponder death even as they know it's occurring. This adds a dimension of psychological torture in most cases.
