Good for you ... you're wrong but then you have a history of delusion so I can live with that.

No they are not ... there is NO essential difference between old style warfare and modern day apart from our magnified ability to destroy and the fact that they are reported in near real-time.

War can always be justified; our history is replete with wars that have been justified, legitimacy requires an overarching legal framework and the organisation to back that up with force if necessary (a world government) and if we didn't pardon/forgive we could never move on.
