Sending some capitalists to fire missiles wouldn't really be justice either. The notion of them "doing their own fighting" isn't as relevant when it comes to imperialism, because the fighting is so one-sided already. I could see some politician easily doing a sort of photo op where they actually "do the fighting". I mean, American propagandists will go to war zones and "embed" with soldiers. There's some risk to life but obviously not that much of a risk. American soldiers themselves don't have high casualty rates. Since they're just doing airstrikes. People still have the WWI trench warfare mental image of war.
