War debate

[DS]

How do you feel about war? I think war is needed if a country threatens to harm or evade your country.

EDIT: 4 more years until I go to Marines :)

I agree with the quote above. Although it is with unfortunate admittance, wars will never cease to exist for Man.
Diplomacy and the acts of compromise should gradually replace war in my opinion, but as in the right or wrong of wars, I wholly think that wars are never right. Wether it be for a "holy cause" or to gain land for your own country, it may be worth it in profit and power, but it is cheap in blood and flesh.

I think that it is only approvable when one faction refuses to discuss things and only wants to fight, and they will attack and destroy your own nation if you don't fight back.

Such wars like this were World War 2. Hitler has continuously trying to exterminate the Hebrew race and Jewish religion from the earth.

When 2 enemy factions are trying to reach a goal such as land or money or something like that, deplomacy can easily be used and avoid a war.

But its when violence itself is the goal of 1 faction, that's when there is no other choice.

Unfortunately very few wars in human history approvable like this. In my opinion, the Iraq war is NOT an approvable war. Most people think that our terrorist enemies are just aiming for violence and trying to kill us for not being Islamic. But that's really not the case....
