War: Never good, but necessary

I don't think anyone (except for terrorists) really wishes for war. It's an event we all hope to avoid. Nothing great really comes from it. Innocent people just following orders are killed by the thousands and spill blood right onto the ground being contested. It sucks, but sometimes it is the only option. In a perfect world, everyone would respect each others rights. However, in reality we have nations trying to subjugate others all the time. There comes a time where people must take matters into their own hands and in order to maintain their livelihood. It's not their fault. They're just trying to protect themselves from foreign oppression. War may never be acceptable in a moral sense, but most of the time it's justified. The bottom line that boundaries aren't always going to be respected. As a result, war is something we cannot really avoid without mutual respect of such boundaries.
