res- Let me ask you a simple question...

What do you consider to be sufficient grounds to justify the invasion of one nation by another?

First of all, I don't believe there are any "simple" answers to that question. But I'll give you my 2cents "Cummings Doctrine". :)

Under most circumstances war is to be avoided, it is painful, bloody, and frightening. We must have exhausted all reasonable means of solving the conflict short of war.

1. The nation represents a threat to America and world peace.
2. There's a vital national interest at stake.
3. The cost to our men and women in uniform is reasonable.
4. We have a high propensity of success.
5. Our invasion will improve the living conditions of the nation.
6. Don’t do more harm than the evil already being done.

That would be my basic premises Steven. But I reserve the right to be wrong.
