\\\"It\\\'s war and the Autobots are soldiers.\\\" Correct! Bingo! Give this one a prize! The Autobots are soldiers in a war, fighting against the enemy. Oftentimes, they get a very real enjoyment out of killing their opponents. Often, they resort to doing horrible, ugly things (like using the Spark Extractor, which is different from any other weapon because \\\'\\\'\\\'it is stated in canon that it is.\\\'\\\'\\\') The fact that they sometimes feel bad \\\'\\\'does not make it okay.\\\'\\\' Never does the show state that feeling bad about your actions excuses them completely.

It intentionally leaves the viewer to decide, which is why we are were we are now.

The Decepticons are also soldiers in a war, fighting against the enemy. Doing brutal things. Enjoying victories against the enemy. Loyal to their leader, who once upon a time, was a gifted young revolutionary who rose out of the gladiator pits to resist their corrupt system of governing. Time, anger, and the thirst for vengeance have turned him into something pretty ugly, but those under him are a mixed bag.

That\\\'s not BlackAndWhiteMorality. It\\\'s a show that\\\'s prepared to question BlackAndWhiteMorality, raise heavy questions, and give us as realistic a depiction of war as possible given the demographic.

Stories that are interested in staying out of the grey don\\\'t often give us InglouriousBasterds homages.
