Ethical Robots of War ?

Refer to: http://hardware.slashdot.org/hardware/08/01/28/1638253.shtml and http://www.cc.gatech.edu/ai/robot-lab/online-publications/formalizationv35.pdf

Do you think humans would ever implement an ethical robot ? I think it's all big talks and makes things sound nicer. The very human nature is so predictable and corrupted, easily swayed when winds of changes move. I am not being a pessimist but it's about reality. If person or something becomes and follows ethical , it's as good as not doing the unethical (killing , using lethal force ...etc.) So those who thought up about this ethical robot thing , fat hope and I think you lot knows very well how corrupted our nature are. Time to wake up sleepy heads. If there's really ethics , we wouldn't have so much trouble and bad news around these days. Those who talk big about ethics ... are pure hypocrites and fascist ... save for a very small minor and rare ones. So far , I have not seen anyone who fits into the rare group yet.

There's an old saying, when people talk about morals , it's when morals are absent. When people talk about good governing , it's when good governance is absent. I forget who said it but I think this saying is very true. When a sage comes to teach about morals , it's when people are corrupted that's why sages come to attempt to teach. If everyone is not corrupted , then where do you need to have someone to teach and rant about ? If a country is well governed , people wouldn't be bothered to talk about good governance because good governance is already there. Only when there's a lack of good governance , that's when people come out to rant about it.
