I can't think of something more horrific than war off the top of my head, and when it's over Doctrines about God that you can't prove to be true, that is extremely stupid!
Though I would say the crusades to kick the Moors out of France in the battle of Tours with Charles Martel and following battles were justified as an act of self-defense.
I'd say the hundreds of years Spanish Christians fought to reclaim Spain, which was almost conquered by Moors, was a just cause.
Even the Crusades for the holy land, which I don't agree with, were still fought to recapture land that Muslims conquered with the sword.
Crusaders defeated Ottoman Turkish aggression in the Naval battle of Lepanto, which may have saved all of Italy from becoming a Muslim country with harsh oppressive laws , without religious freedom.
Communism was also very violent and aggressive, and I think a lot of South Koreans are happy America intervened, at the time when almost all of South Korea had fallen to Communists.
Without American and Allied intervention, all of Korea would likely be run by Kim Jong Un today.
Without the Allies defending themselves and American intervention, imagine Earth during the late 30's 40's or the cold war period?
So, sometimes military intervention accomplished the greater good.
A lot of the men are drafted and brainwashed into violently killing people in another uniform who they otherwise might get along with. That sucks? It's terrible! Any questions?
What is something else that sucks about war?
