It's not supposed to valorize military service, it is
supposed to make a case that the warmongers are hypocrites.
Now if you don't find hypocrisy to be a problem (and folks
on this list have argued that it is not a problem), then I
suppose this tack won't appeal to you.  Personally, I find
hypocrisy repellent and a fundamental intellectual offense
that there is no excuse for.
