What does justified going to war mean?

It means there is a justifiable reason for going to war. Take for example World War 2. Hitler was killing millions of people and invading countries against their will. That deemed a reason to go against Hitler. He was wrong to do what he did and he had to be stopped. Another justifiable reason is when a people group or nation is under threat or attack. The United Nations deems it to be a justifiable reason for going to war against the foe. An example of that was when Iraq wanted to go into Kuwait to steal their oil and rule over them.
