When you design tactics to maximise suffering on civilian populations and your only constraint is operational rather than moral, you've told the world who you are.

Not entirely. I rely here on the OED:
calmative, adj. and n.
A. adj.
Having a calming effect; sedative.
B. n.
A medical agent which quiets inordinate action of an organ; transf. and fig. anything which has a calming effect.
[though I presume a medical agent which quiets inordinate action of an organ would these days be called anti-Viagral.]
carminative, adj. and n.
A. adj.
Of medicines, etc.: Having the quality of expelling flatulence.
for example: 1710 J. Addison Tatler No. 224. The Carminitive Wind-expelling Pills.
B. n.
A carminative medicine or agent.

erstwhile is a totally redundant adjective which has no difference in meaning, ever, to "former".
