If precedent is set... OMG! Think of it! It could very well be a strategy to end unjust wars.
But then most wars are unjust.
St. Augustine was wrong when he wrote "Just War Theory". When he wrote it he used information that later was found to be innaccurate. But even by the criteria used to establish the idea of a "Just War"... it does not hold water. Look at the reasons given for most wars, and it is easy to demonstrate that they are fallaceous.
Unless attacked, we have no good reasons for war. Most wars are waged to make money for super rich corporations. We bleed our young and ruin them forever.... to make corporations more money. Then we essentially abandon our warriors and turn our backs on them.
Just war?
What about a just socieity?!
St. Augustine was quite a guy. But he was as wrong then as he is now.
