Also the American Civil War was just. And in fact if the Union had not persisted, and paid the price to get rid of the evil of slavery & keep the country together, the USA would not have been there to help stop Hitler. Only 80 years separate the two conflicts.

Everything you do counts for good or evil in ways that you cannot possibly imagine.

Yes, the Civil War was just indeed!

Mind, I was thinking more of wars between nation states, where each and every opponent swore they alone were fighting the ‘just war’.
