:::Even wars where the US is making some sort of effort to protect itself or solve problems aren't very just at all, considering that the US hardly tries other options. The US doesn't try very hard to find diplomatic solutions to problems. The US can't just do whatever it pleases, become involved in wars because other countries are pissed at them, and then call such wars just. As long as there are other courses of action it's not okay to enter conflicts where lives, innocent or otherwise, might be lost.--[[User:Samjames|Samjames]] 17:45, 10 June 2009 (EDT)

::::Iraq was fought much because the whole world thought Saddam had WMDs. So there was a genuine national security element to it. There was also an altruistic element? The difference between Iraq and Sudan is that Sudan has no national security benefit. Do you think it's okay for a nation to choose a war that has national security potential and altruistic benefits over a war that has nothing in the nations's best interest?
