You can't selectively exclude a segment of society when you're trying to 
demonstrate the society doesn't do what that segment does. Being 
military or not doesn't matter here. We're asking whether Klingon has a 
word for /spoils,/ not whether the Klingon government approves of 
despoiling.

So we're agreed that the answer to the question, what is the Klingon 
word for /spoils/?/,/ is not "Klingons don't despoil," yes?
