yes and no, it was pretty straight forward back than, you see german solger you kill him, now you don,t deal with solgers you deel with armed insergents, wich are not so easy to id, plus you have civilians who secretly support insergents, even the so called frendly civilians have a great chance becoming insergents tomorow, sometimes todays war is fought with one eye closed and one arm tied up(figurativly speaking), ww2 enemies and today enemies don,t compare. plus todays war look more like policing than military action
