Just like You

Violence is also justified in war. Obviously, war tends to be very violent but sometimes people would say that violence in war has to have a limit. In actuality, there is no limit of violence in war. In the article “Hiroshima: Was It Necessary”, Doug Long (n.d.) writes about how there is no limit in war by using the bombing of Hiroshima as an example. Japan was fighting against the United States and had four years bombed Pearl Harbor. The United States fought back but Japan did not surrender.…

For example in his message to the invasion troops, General Dwight D. Eisenhower recites, "you will bring... the elimination of Nazi tyranny over the oppressed peoples of Europe, and security to yourselves." In saying so Eisenhower proves war is morally justifiable because, in this case especially, fighting in the war prevented a potential Nazi…

Just War Theory is something I believe in. However, I believe some modifications may be needed in contemporary America. Snauwaert asserts it is somewhat of a misnomer to suggest the United States is at war with terrorism because terrorism is a tactic . Thus, Snauwaert suggests the United States is at war with the practitioners of terrorism. This is a dangerous suggestion. One must separate the cause from the effect. If a doctor treats the symptoms and not the cause of the disease, the disease…

People go to war for different reasons like power which means that someone would go to war so that if they win they can claim territory or take over land that belonged to the opponents. A country might also go to war because they want to defend themselves as another country could be trying to invade them; they need to protect their country and the people in it. I think that war is wrong because as a Christian, I believe that going into war means that you will most likely end up killing…

I think that the Trojan war was unjust, there was no reason to start the war in the first place. Wars are supposed to be the last resort of action, only to be fought when there are no other options. Wars also need a valid reason to start. Just because a lady gets kidnapped doesn't mean that the whole country should be put at risk, forcing the men to fight. The biggest reason the war was unjust is that the whole thing was because of the gods. The gods were being unfair to the mortals because they…

According to Aquinas, there are three criteria for a war to be just. The first criteria is that the ruler or authority of a nation must make the decision to go to war. This is because the ruler was chosen to make decisions that will benefit the whole nation and not just themselves. No private individual has the authority to declare war because they do not have the correct intentions. The second criteria for just war is that there must be a just cause for the war to be fought. This means that the…

principles of a simply War originated with Ancient Greek and Roman philosophers like philosopher and Cicero and were supplementary to by Christian theologians like theologist and…

February 26, 2011. This date marked the release of Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” single, which debuted as number one on the Billboard Hot 100 (Wiser). Lady Gaga, otherwise known as Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, is an influential and unique pop singer songwriter in America. Her music reaches out to those of all ages, genders, and races. Gaga is well known for being ‘different’ throughout her pop culture career for things such as, her bold fashion choices that included showing up to an award…

pop-heavy “manufactured” celebrity persona to an accredited and conventional artist has helped her effectively reflect her true identity. To cultivate a loyal, supportive, and loving body of followers doesn’t come easy nowadays to most celebrities. And like many other pop sensations, Lady Gaga’s rise to fame did not come in two days. Gaga’s love for music started at an early age of four when “she learned to play songs on…

War is beautiful. War is necessary. We must fight because we are right, and the enemy is wrong. When raised in a nation that is free, these three statements will be echoed until it is time to be shipped off to battle. There is no argument or resistance, only a generation of young men that believe their right is not to be free, but to die in hopes that their sacrifice will bring freedom to those they love. “Dulce et Decorum Est” by Wilfred Owen is a bitter contradiction about the common belief…
