“There are several typical ways in which people think about war: First, all warfare is wrong. This position finds simply no justification, at any time or in any circumstance, for opposing another human being to the extent of taking that human beings’ life, even in order to defend one’s own. A second approach sees warfare as a dirty business which is sometimes inevitable. It concludes that the best war is the quickest war, no matter what it may entail.”
