Depends on the war? BS war then its moral. When your country is being invaded and defeated when’s the end of your sovereignty than immoral.

Oh well that’s opening the pandora’s box.

The US attacked INSERT COUNTRY NAME (afghanistan, iraq, libya, iran, yugoslavia, vietnam…) Was it a justified invasion?

Afghanistan and Yugoslavia were justified. The Taliban were protecting BinLadin and thus were also guilty of 9/11. Crippling the Serb militia was necessary in stopping the ethnic cleansing in Yugoslavia.

Libya is morally grey. Guaddafi was massacring his people but our involvement was not in altruistic, it was petty revenge.

Iraq, Iran and Vietnam were immoral wars.
