Read the excerpt from Not a dove but no longer a hawk. Thus, in the final analysis American strategy in Vietnam consists of creating a killing machine in the form of a highly equipped expeditionary corps and then turning this machine on the enemy in the hope that over the years enough killing will be done to force the enemys collapse through exhaustion and despair What is the philosophical concept in this excerpt

These are the options for the question:

The machinery of war has significantly changed.

Military corps are trained to defeat the enemy.

And this is the correct answer:

Modern war is inherently violent and unfair.

Explanation:

In the excerpt, the author is coldly describing the military strategy of the American Army in Vietnam. Basically, the strategy could be summed up like this: to kill as many people as possible, whether innocent or not, until the enemy surrenders.

That strategy is inherently violent and unfair. It is also cruel to the local populations of Vietnam.
