No, you don't get to suddenly now distance yourself and those you serve, the threshold was crossed a long long time ago, war has always been a racket, those making and selling weapons have always been complicit in war crimes, hell, massively responsible for them since they don't just make and sell, and advertise and test (hint: on oppressed populations) (E: and how could I forget - ~~lobby~~ bribe politicians and other policy makers), but most importantly ***profit*** from war. Fuck this noise.
