&gt; <i>The soldiers you&#x27;re fighting joined their army to protect their people.</i><p>Simply not true in the case of, say, an aggressor who initiates conflict by invading other countries.<p>Many a times there is definitely a right an wrong in war.<p>The side which is right has no choice but to respond with aggression. Fight, or else be laughably annihilated for the sake of a pacifist ideology.
