Wars such as those which have occurred in Iraq only allow hatred, violence and terror to proliferate.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided; but they are far better than certain kinds of peace.
War is not the answer, because only love can conquer hate.
Those wars are unjust which are undertaken without provocation. For only a war waged for revenge or defense can be just.
What a war in Iraq will not do is bring about peace in the Middle East or end the injustices that feed resentment and breed terrorists.
The only way human beings can win a war is to prevent it.
For ultimately, the only way to win wars, is to prevent them occurring in the first place.
The disagreeable reality for those who believe in human rights is that there are some occasions - and Iraq may be one of them - when war is the only real remedy for regimes that live by terror.
Ethno-sectarian violence is a particular concern in Iraq, as it is a cancer that continues to spread if left unchecked.
War is just when it is necessary; arms are permissible when there is no hope except in arms.
There are only two cases in which war is just: first, in order to resist the aggression of an enemy, and second, in order to help an ally who has been attacked.
