When war is to defend the lives of people in your country, then war is pro-life.
Was WWII pro-life? Yes. It saved the lives of many before Hitler had a chance to complete his genocide. If people of the world looked the other way and ignored what Hitler was doing, he would have taken over the world by killing many millions more.
So yes, war can be pro-life. The reason for war is the determining factor.

It's what I've been saying all along. Why aren't they embarrassed to have such a strong mind set regarding pro life. But start an unnecessary war, where 10's of thousands of lives are taken. How do they justify that in their minds.
Yes, hypocrites!

War is the necessary evil that gives people the freedom and opportunity to say and do what the want. If it was not for war, many people in the world (including the U.S.) would be suppressed, tortured and killed by people of arrogance and greed. War is intended to defeat those who represent evil and bring about positive change for humankind, regardless of how long it takes or how many lives are lost in the process, it has always been intended to achieve the greater good. So, in my opinion, unfortunately yes, war is pro-life.

when someone has you hostage and is going to chop your head off and you can kill them first, yes it is pro life, your life.
like everything in life, the situation dictates your reaction to it. i would bet if you were threatened with death that you would stand idle and allow it without a struggle. i could be wrong and you really could be that person who would die rather than kill.
from these posts, one would think the poor terrorist are just victims and if we would just play nice, they will disappear into peaceful nice Muslims and all will be well..if only that were true.
take a cue from your own id..mother nature...nature is at constant struggle for survival and not afraid to fight for it.

I believe Smedley Butler winner of two Congressional Medals of Honor (if I recall correctly) said it right.... "War is A Racket".

I wouldn't call it "pro-life", but wars can and have been fought to save lives. Any action that tries to end genocide would be as close as you could get to calling it pro-life.

War is pro-life when it defends the innocent against the imposition of evil. To allow evil to prevail is not pro-life, it is weakness and it is at the expense of those who cannot defend themselves.

NO1 But it is amazing how most people who are anti-choice are also pro-war.
Curious. Life is to be protected unless it is a young adult!

pro-life people only see the pro-life issue. therefore, they vote for politicians who they think will change that law.
but those politicans are more about war than dealing with that issue.
Look at the big picture, people. think globally.

Interesting question. But I guess not because in war you know someone is going to die so it would not be pro-life!
