Self defense is an inherent right.

"Inherent" right. According to whose logic. But, even dropping the rhetoric out of the heavens of "inherent", that response requires some text. The genuine questions are much more specific. What are the contexts under which a country can claim self defense? That's both a serious question and one that requires a good bit of argumentation.
