Answer 12

I am a conservative and I am going to war because it is a valid act to repel or prevent an aggression against another country as authorized by the rules in International Law.

Answer 13

In my opinion it is entirely proper to go to war to defend your country.

Normally I do not approve of preemptive strikes, however I am from Israel.

Many Muslim countries have threatened to murder Israelis and destroy Israel.

In the past we have always been able to wait until we were attacked before we defended ourselves, however with the President of Iran threatening to "wipe us off the map" and pursuing the purchase of nuclear weapons technology and Uranium enrichment technology on the black market I think that a preemptive strike is not only appropriate, it appears to me to be absolutely necessary.

If we wait until Iran has the capability to set off a nuclear weapon in Israel the devastation will be enormous.

For our own self defense, Israel must make a preemptive strike on Iran and destroy Iran, before Iran gets nuclear weapons.

Answer 14

Politically speaking, I am middle of the road, although I tend to lean a little more to the right.

However, the only war I could really get behind would be in the face of an invasion on our own soil.

Just a threat wouldn't quite be enough, and members of our armed forces are attacked as insurgents all the time. There are other ways to handle threats of terrorism than with a declaration of war.
