英语词汇decapitation的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	decapitation
词源	decapitation. I’ve only been able to trace this military term as far back as the beginning of the second Iraq War (Operation Iraqi Freedom) in 2003. It means to kill someone with missiles from a long distance, often by hitting the building or even room in which he is quartered or visiting—sometimes literally blowing his head off.
