War

War is something that is inevitable. It is how people in this world are able to settle their differences. We are a violent society and for centuries now that is how we've settled conflict. Sure diplomatic reasons would much better for the world as a whole, but how can you negotiate with someone who wants nothing but to see your nation destroyed? We could've tried to negotiate with Al-Qaeda but you can imagine how that would end up. War is something nations have to go through if they want to protect themselves and their way of life. Self-defense is really where the majority of times when war is used and I think that this is morally acceptable. Its when nations send their youth out to fight for a cause that wasn't provoked is when the moral line gets crossed, and it does get crossed often. Genocide however is something that would never be acceptable, even in our war based world we live in now. War as self defense is something that cannot be avoid and must be used in order to retain your culture.
