Are wars justified?

Are wars justified? Well, that's something you have to answer for yourself. You can think on a high, grand level and say "Well, war gives a country some new territory." Or, you can think on the scale of the individual and think "Well, people die in wars." Personally, I think that a war is justified if the goals are realistic and manageable. Look at the war now. We can't possibly make pece in Iraq in any way short of killing them all. This war isn't quite worth it, but there are wars that are. In then end, it's your choice.War is justified when it stops certain people/powers who, if unchecked, would slaughter countless more people than it took to stop them. It is also justified in cases such as the Revolutionary war, when a country/colonies is/are wrongfully oppressed.
