Assignment

 What does it mean for a war to be just, according to Just War theory? Do you believe that we as a nation must justify all of our military actions through some sort of moral code, or is it simply a matter of âmight makes rightâ? To what extent do you believe that our major military endeavors over the past 50 years have been justified and therefore moral (Vietnam, the first Iraq War in 1990, the second Iraq war in 2003, and Afghanistan, for example). What do you think we should do about Russiaâs invasion of the Crimean peninsula, or Iranâs alleged attempts to create a nuclear weapon?
