Here here.

As for Ares, he is god of war, he starts wars, that what he does, it is his thing, part of his nature and duty as a god there of. So all the people he has killed, cities he has burned, lives ruined, those were not done to cause those affected pain personally, it was just all part of what happens in a war, which is Ares' only real goal; to make wars. Their pain is not the goal, it is just an invetablity of his goal.

To modify the omlet/eggs anology. When I eat eggs it is not because I am taking relish in those baby chicks that will never be born and were taken from their mother who is now feed drugs to keep her fertile all day everyday, I just want breakfast. Everything else that happens to the chicken is entirely incidental.
