War and those who wage it

I'd also like to add that I hate war too and if we took a poll I think we would all agree that war is a nasty bad thing.
Point is there are necessary evils in the world and war is one of them. I am NOT speaking specifically about any particular war, nor do I "want" war. Idealistically there would be no war, but that is not realistic. Nor do I feel that war is a good way to solve some issues, but it may be the only response to some and one may also be at war through a defensive response. Should we work to prevent war at virtually all costs? Yes, but that is not an absolute.
