It doesn't need to be. Just sell the robots to both sides, and let the robots destroy each other.

  Guess which side can afford robots and which one can't

    Throughout history military power has been tied closely to wealth and population. Theorists of AI and robotic weapons talk about how that relationship could significantly weaken: You don't need a large population to build a robotic army, and while you need wealth, it may be that you just need better AI developers (who could be AIs themselves) more than you need more robots. Or maybe you just need to find the right combination of AI, hardware, and tactics first; win quickly and it's too late for the enemy to learn. Singapore with its high-tech foundation, for example, could become one of the most powerful nations in SE Asia, and maybe even beyond.

  It does kind of need to be.. for the same reason we use drones against people and not just infrastructure.
