That's a good Point Thoran, the media in battle certainly is a recent thing, well with video cameras anyway. There were official war photographers as far back as the crimean war, and journalists went out in the napoleonic wars too.
That said, the camera can show pretty much what you want it to show.

I don't think it is fair to wish death on young men whos upbringing has been totally different from ours just because they don't agree with you.
As for resources, I read somewhere that in the US, 3% of the population own 70% of the wealth (this figure may be a few percent off but you get my point I'm sure).
