1. True - because the military only does what it's told
2. True - Time is just what we call the sequence of events in life because we cannot perceive them all at once
3. False - it only ruins your day from the moment it hits onward
4. True - the forbidden thing only makes us want it more
5. False - Those things are only true if used against humans. Just because it's built or launched doesn't mean it's actively killing mankind.
6. False - Honor is in the hearts of men, as long as one man is still alive and is honorable, it isn't dead. The man can be from any faction since a war is not usually fought by one group alone. So if there is a man who is honorable, but not on your side, then honor is still not dead.

Also, you can't kill honor because it's an emotion and is not in and of itself a living thing. All you can do is supress it in those who feel it.

All to a degree true, but time does change things. It is not up to one single person to change them, therefore time along with the choices of everyone changes things. Also, there is honor in a war when you are fighting a worthy cause.(there is no honor in what the U.S. is doing in Iraq or any other country)
