It all depends.  Are we fighting in asymetircal warfare or a war with a limited objective (ie capture and hold THIS island) or are we fighting someone like the Nazis?  All these factors are contingent on the circumstances.

I guess that indiscriminate killing or doing it for personal pleasure is never acceptable.
