It is OK- on a relative basis. There is no logical reason why it is not ok starting with whatever premises their society might start with. I can start with different premises. But I would never advocate or support military action for a moral crusade against another country. Why? Turn the tables around. I wouldn't want them to start a moral crusade and use military force against our way of life.
