They are, of course, but there are two different consequences involved in this assessment. One is "stop nuclear weapons" (the converse would be "do not stop nuclear weapons") and the other is "friendly fire incidents" (the converse would be "no friendly fire incidents"). Neither are directly related to the other, since the former is specific to this engagement and the latter happens in any combat.

Yeah, the two sides are basically:

* The war is necessary, regardless of friendly fire

* The friendly fire happened, regardless of whether the war is necessary

They're just totally orthogonal.
