Best Answer

yes and no

Yes: when against evil dictators that oppress their people and have attacked you first (Nazi Germany, good example). (Defensive- ie defence of invaded country) When country wish to invade a country simply for resources, land. Defence, putting your people first in defensively in various situations. If a war is to be just it has to be defence of the people and no other.

No: For economical reasons (no matter what, you can trade). For revenge, you are just as bad as them. Any other reasons really.

Why is war never justified?

There have been a few just wars in the past. War can be justified if it is waged in order to defend yourself and your country and faith from invaders. War cannot be justified when it is offensive, instead of defensive. In other words, it is wrong to wage war if no one has attacked you or your country or your faith (eg. imperialist wars cannot be justified).
