The theory that they want to kill most of the people is very old, but the reality is much worse: they don't want dead people, they want slave people. They only kill if they refuse to be enslaved.
War is not about killing, is about making more slaves, obtaining more control. In this case, making more slaves and more control through more taxes and more fear.

About the people usually dying (soldiers) they are psycopath anyway. You don't enlist in an organization that do legal killing if you wouldn't love the adventure to assessinate with no consequences.
