Now the U.S.A is in war against the Iraq. And the usa seems that wont give up either. So, if the iraq had nuclear weapons and used it against the usa, following your logic, this attack would be justified.
Would?



Ok, but when a country goes to war, the people are not asked if they agree or not in going to war. The government decides so, and the people must live with it, agreeing or not with the war.
sorry but thats kinda how the world works buddy... we elect officials to represent us... if you allow a government to represent you, you are responsible for every single decision they make regardless of whether you agree with it or not. if you don't like war then elect a government that doesnt like it either...

applying rules to war is a tricky subject... this isnt scrabble, people fucking die... how are u gonna agree with someone who you're trying to kill on what the rules are on who you are gonna be allowed to blow up and who you arent...

war sucks... it's not like i'm happy about the situation we are in... it sucks that we are under the constant threat of attack... but honestly if we are gonna be at war we shouldnt really expect anything else
