I think the justifiable reasons for war are to protect yourself from an aggressor or to protect others from an unjustifiable overwhelming force. At this stage in human development i see no other justifiably reason for war. If you think I am wrong Im more than happy to hear other points of view.

What about preemptive strikes? If some country thinks that another nation is making preparations to attack them, then the former may launch a sudden attack in order to gain an upper hand. This was the justification given by Nazi Germany for invading the USSR.

I suppose it depends on the aggression level and the rhetoric coming from that country. If they are talking like "We mad, we blow you up!" and they start launching bombs in your direction to try and provoke a response than they are giving you no reason to believe that they wont attack. but, maybe you should just hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Personally, I would hate to be the first one to make a move on anything other than peace talks.
