So you believe that terrorism can be justified, depending on the circumstances?
Interesting. Can morality be taken into account when a country is at war.
As Japan started the conflict, you could justify yourself with this argumant. On the other hand, you could argue that killing civilians is immoral. How would you determine which is the the correct or morally correct position.
If you were Japanese, you would argue one way.
If you were American, you would argue the other.
However, back to the point.
Therefore, this statement can only be relative to yourself, and whoever else agrees with it, depending on your point of view.
