Muslims and Christians have been killing each other, and Jews for thousands of years, and like to drag God's name in as the reason for it.
Very few people enjoy killing, very few people want to kill. So in order to turn a normal person into a killer, you need to twist their mind around.
Wrong is Right, Right is Wrong.
Patriotism, God, blah blah blah.
After the first one, it gets easier, since then, you can't change your mind, cause it changes you back into a killer.
sigh.
I'm not a pacifist, don't get me wrong, I'm not against the occasional whupping. Sometimes it needs to be done, I just think it's too often the first choice, when it should be the reluctantly used ultimate last resort.

Anything can be justified if you are following Satan. IF you go out because God has told you to go, it is a far different thing as He is the one that made everything and is the One that you should obey. He would not tell you to go to war with someone just for the sake of killing but only to cleanse those people of evil. Satan wants you to kill just to be killing and will offer any number of things as a reward for doing it knowing you will never collect. With God, you know you will get what was promised

The only time a war is justified is when it is defending people against aggression and harm.
Too often people use ''war in the name of G-d'' as an excuse to fight and conquer. I take the Crusades as the worse of this-------. Thousands and thousands across Europe and the Mid-east died, as the Crusades went for land and wealth. True, maybe many uneducated and poor were told it was to save the Holy Land, and to get to heaven by killing non believers, and they were looking for salvation. But, for their leaders, it was for wealth and power. Does this sound familiar as to what we hear today?

It's only a propaganda to justify the war: the real reasons are completely different. The quest for oil and water will be the future wars.

Man's wars are not justifiable.
Soon, Christ will bring an end to all war
Isa 2:4 And he will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

Its not but people like to pretend that God is on their side. It seems to help with the propaganda they make up to justify the murder of innocent people.

Sometimes war is justified in order to keep the freedom we have. IF the war wasn't over there, it would be over here.War is prophesized in the bible. It's going to happen and nothing can stop it.
