Thank you, both were fascinating. The strength-morality reminded me of the end of this post: “When asked later about his promises, he would claim that Islam allows lying in times of war.” www.humansofnewyork.com/post/7284647...

The link for me is just giving a banner but no article. In any case, I've read Abū Ḥāmid al-Ghazali's detailed discussion in "Revival..." of the status of lying in war in Islam, and there are various mitigations and, all in all, nothing much that would fail scrutiny in most military operations.

Much of it is premised on scenarios where disclosure could get you or your military mates or your family killed.
