Some Christians, not all, don't believe in war because as followers of Jesus Christ and His teachings they are opposed to war.

It was Jesus who said "Love your neighbor as yourself", and "Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also".

There is a difference between what a Christian person should and shouldn't do and what Government and Nations do.

War as offensive and as an act of aggression on the part of a nation is the opposite of Jesus' teaching.

War as defensive and as an act of protection on the part of a nation is supportable and required by the scriptures for that is the function of government as God ordained.
