Just War is a Christian theory of moral ethics that goes back to [[Saint Augustine]] and St. [[Thomas Aquinas]]. It attempts to delineate the precise conditions under which a War can be a called a Just War: "the task of just war theory is to seek a middle path between them: to justify at least some wars, but also to limit them (Ramsey 1961)." <ref>https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/war/</ref>
