He fly at him fast enough so the guy won't have time to shot Lois. If its enough force to punch himself through a wall at that speed, it is enough to kill a person standing in his way.
Couldn't he go fist first with one hand, while dragging the war lord with the other hand?
Also was there a non-lethal way to resolve that situation? As far as I can tell it was either bull rush him at super speed or to blast him with Heat Vision (this isn't the all perfect can do anything comic book Supes yet).
If it wasn't Supes and it was a police officer, and he had a clean shot to the criminal's head, would they not take it? So either way whether the War Lord lived or not, it's definitely not considered "murder."
