 casus belli if you didn't know is latin I think and it means "the reason for
 waging war" or put another way, some formal reason presented to a state,
 nation, or leader that says "hey this is why we're gonna come and kill you"
look, I know that nobody reading this has the power to affect this, but like... the forced cessation of genocide is one of the only ethical casus belli I can think of.

 if the USA goes to war with venezuela and venezuela poisons their oil watering
 hole it'd just be empowering the other oil reserve extracting locations, not
 bringing us closer to sustainability via carbon sequestration.
 
 maybe nations shouldn't declare war unless the minor is declaring on the
 greater.

 Trump labelled Antifa a terrorist organization.
 
 That is essentially a declaration of war.

 We had our chance for initiative 
 
 Now we fight with reaction.

 when people are alone, they fall alone, with nobody to bolster them up.
 
 a fallen ally is a blow to morale. shaken morale makes you unsteady - broken
 morale is the enemy's win condition.
 
 help your allies. bolster them up. find those whose cause you share enemies
 with. we're going to get through it together, or not at all.
 
 though I do know we will get through it.

 everything they accuse us of doing is something they perfected themselves.
 "why would my enemy do it if we didn't do it first?"
 
 But I want to caution you and state very clearly that the things they accuse
 us of are NOT the only things they do. They are clandestine. They only speak
 publicly of the things that we have noticed. They are much better than we are
 at keeping their damn mouths shut and only talking about their operations
 behind closed doors.
 
 meanwhile, for us it's like "check out these T-shirts I made isn't my sign
 neat hey what are you doing later wanna get some coffee"

 If there is no martial peril at stake, the war will be fought against

 peace is on the opposite side of conflict. Not here with the unfair.
 peace is eternally elusive only to those who are use-ed.
 peace is eternally internal next to those who are lucid.
 peace is necessary. peace is useful. peace is helpful. peace is beloved.
 
 peace is not always there. it is skittish, like an alley cat, but it will come
 if you make offerings.
 
 offer peace to me. I will nourish thee.
 offer war to me. I will devastate all who see me.
 
 there comes a time when all foes become blind, when your motives are no longer
 part of their story.
 at that time, they are lost to you, and they are only confused as to the
 things you do.
 they may heal in time.
 there may not be time.
 sacrifice your fallen to me,
 sacrifice them on the altar of tragedy,
 I will bane your broken resolutions
 I will claim your darkest allusions.
 fight for me, in spite of tragedy,
 and I will send mercy to your victims.
 fight for me, if you hold peace dearly,
 and I will sign fate's next ultimatum.

 cannot be an conclusively ethical reason for war"
 
 perhaps you're right, but my feelings tell me that we have guns, and people
 are dying.

 while they amass power in the background"
