My previous post spoke of the realities of war. This thread has now become one
dealing with the morality of war. Let me stir the OT pot a bit by saying there
are those who say what we are talking about is state sanctioned murder. In
that realm, are not war, capital punishment and abortion moral equivalents? Is
each of these not a state sanctioned murder? Bill Barber

I can't speak for Peacenik Bob, but given that there certainly was an
aggressor, a response that fell into the "war"category is not only moral
but expected. As to the tupe of response, as the old saying goes, "the
aggressor sets the terms of engagement."
