If WWII was not a Good War, then no war can be a good war. That's the thinking of a pacifist and I reject that view.

Here's some other views:

"What a cruel thing is war: to separate and destroy families and friends, and mar the purest joys and happiness God has granted us in this world; to fill our hearts with hatred instead of love for our neighbors, and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world." .......... Robert E. Lee

"Never, never, never believe any war will be smooth and easy, or that anyone who embarks on the strange voyage can measure the tides and hurricanes he will encounter. The statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events."
Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)

"It is well that war is so terrible, or we should grow too fond of it." R. E .Lee

And, if I may humbly attempt to edit these words of this great man to bring them into concert with 21st century America:
It is well that war is unexperienced by the vast majority of citizens, so that we may grow fond of it without restraint.

And finally, a personal favorite:

"The devil's name is dullness." Robert E. Lee
