Iraq/Afghanistan Wars: US Fallen Soldiers -- Index L

War is sometimes just, other times unjust. But war is NEVER trivial and ALWAYS hell, and writers have been writing about it since the dawn of humankind. This blog is devoted to stories, poems, essays, letters, journals, articles, and speeches about war, written by soldiers, dissidents, hawks, doves, famous and unknown people--whoever has an opinion about or experiences with war. The reason for going to war needs to be just and can therefore be recapturing things taken or punishing people who have done wrong. A contemporary view of just cause was expressed in 1993 when the US Catholic Conference said: "Force may be used only to correct a grave, public evil, i.e., aggression or massive violation of the basic human rights of whole populations." Just war conduct should be governed by the principle of proportionality. The force used must be proportional to the wrong endured, and to the possible good that may come. The more disproportional the number of collateral civilian deaths, the more suspect will be the sincerity of a belligerent nation's claim to justness of a war it initiated. Just war conduct should be governed by the principle of minimum force. This principle is meant to limit excessive and unnecessary death and destruction. It is different from proportionality because the amount of force proportionate to the goal of the mission might exceed the amount of force necessary to accomplish that mission. But if the mission requires much force then it is proportional to the end result.
