“Aggressive war”

Wonder if RuPaul ever heard of any other kind. Certifiable moonbat wingnut head-case.

as opposed to a defensive war....(????) I wonder how he classifies WW2...

Aggressive or Defensive...Yes or No!

The opposite would be defensive war...which is the only type of war permissible under international law. You can agree or disagree with Paul as to whether the invasion of Iraq was an action of self-defense by the US...obviously Paul does not believe it was...and, to me, the position that the US was under some sort of imminent threat from Saddam that justifies a US invasion is hard to make

Yes, it's called defensive war - the only kind that is legitimate under just-war doctrine. Pope John Paul II opposed our Iraq invasion because it was the aggressive waging of war, not a war responding defensively to an attack or imminent attack.
