Is the declaration of war ever justified? When American citizens are being harmed and killed, or their rights and property taken from them, do we idly sit by and watch our brothers and sisters freedom diminish, or do we fight for the liberty and freedom of our great nation and its people?
At what point is it justified to defend ourselves by declaring war? This is a very good question. When the rights and lives of American citizens and the future of our nation is threatened—-it is most certainly time to defend and protect ourselves from the enemies.
Our great nation of America, had had many wars in the history of her existence. From the very early Indian wars and the 7 years war, to our most recent war against terrorists and Iraq. Were these and the others including: the War of 1812, World War I & II, Vietnam and Korea, were they also justifiable? My answer would have to be yes! The United States or our allies were invaded and threatened and action was in order to restore protection and freedom for the good people all over the world, and help keep them from harm or destruction.
As Patrick Henry once said “Give me liberty, or give me death!” Americans should never let our rights and freedoms be taken from us. And fighting for them is most certainly justifiable! If war is the in order to protect our rights and lives, let us take action immediately!
