Is War Justified Murder? Options

[Kontroll]

I feel that the killing or for specific terms, murder of one soldier by another soldier is justified. The soldier is protecting our society, he is protecting our individual rights as a citizen of a certain country. If I've forgotten more then tell me. But I'm sure you all have the point. I feel that it's justified, but some people don't.

If a citizen or ordinary person killed or murdered another person to save another person from losing his life is he right?

I really want to see how people view this topic. If I have not made myself clear, then just ask me to clarify. Thanks.

War is murder?

Hmm, I'm not sure I understand where you're going with this.

Oh, is killing someone else in combat considered murder? Is that the question? No. You have a job to do, you get the job done. Lives are taken. Shit happens.

First of all, why would someone join the army? Sure you can just get drafted randomly or whatever, but a lot of people do it for the pride of their country.
Murder is manslaughter (yeah, I know it's contradictory, but I couldn't think of a better way to put it), but with premeditation. People who fight for their country know what they're getting themselves into. They know that they're gonna kill someone.
War strategies are related to murder. I mean, strategies are plans, premeditation. War strategies are basically plans to kill people and achieve your objective. If look at a person, point a gun at them, and shoot, that's murder. Most likely, you've though about it for a split-second, and that's still murder because that split-second is premeditation.
