Maybe incorrect, but certainly not pathetic. Like a lot of extreme answers, I think it fits in the "What Would Jesus Do" category.

I think War is the very last answer, almost never right, almost always avoidable. And don't give me your sad WWII story. Suppose at the moment Hitler rose to power he'd been isolated by the rest of the world, suppose every effort had been made to help Jews, Gypsies and Poles escape, suppose Money had been funelled to oposition groups.

Some wars may indeed be unavoidable, but they are ALL signs of moral failure, regardless of how blame is appportioned they ALL involve brutality, murder and destruction from all participants.

It's not a football game Naldo. It's very serious business full of suffering. Take off your foam USA #1 hand, scrub the greasepaint off your face and concider seriously the souls that will be exyinguished witgh your tax money. The souls that may be saved doesn't mitigate this fact, necessity doesn't mitigate this fact, as Pilot surely learned there is no way to wash the blood off your hands. That's what War does, it taints the innocent and the guilty alike. Everyone has a right to come to their own conclusions about if this war or any war needs to be or not. No one has a right to be cavalier about it.
