Consequentialism & Utilitarianism
War has can have side effects
War brings more misery than joy

Just War Theory
These have been proved ineffective
We can't enforce international laws
Geneva Conventions
These have been proved ineffective
Rights-based Ethics
War defends some Human Rights . . .

Christian Reasoning
Just War Theory
War is acceptable if conducted in a certain way
Most war is unfair and rules are broken
People are still killing each other!
"Turn your swords into ploughshares" - Micah 4 : 3 & Isaiah 2 : 3
Our finite resources are better spent elsewhere
Lex Talionis
"An eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" - Exodus 21 : 24
War can be necessary for freedom and human rights

Note: The reason why there are no "War is always justified" views is because these views (surprise, surprise) aren't really common!
