 Justice is a prerequisite for peace.

You can't live in peace with injustice.

War is good if it gives you freedom and justice.

 Just war theory 👌 I approve.

War is like homicide. It is unjust if it is the end, but may be just if it is a means to greater justice, liberty, and peace. The American Revolutionary War was a just war. I wonder if we'll have another just revolution to reinstate justice and liberty, freeing is from our tyrants.
