War is justified as a means of national defense. Politicians can stretch the meaning of "national defense" pretty far. Responding to direct attack is definitely ok with me. Liberating other countries is not. If someone proposed liberating China, for example, I'd be against it. Or Cuba. I was against Somalia. Against Yugoslavia. Against Haiti. I don't support doing anyone any favors.

Here's a quote from the Sun Times (*no Hillary connection although I understand it to be liberal leaning)

Even David Kay, who failed in his assignment to find such weapons in Iraq, has testified that there were abundant reasons to get rid of Saddam, and that the war was justified.
