to the condemnation of force except in cases where it is absolutely necessary to advance the cause of peace

That is a very strange definition of pacifism.... who is to decide when it is absolutely necessary? George Bush, Tony Blair....

Well, the US Congress, on Dec. 8th, 1941, for one.

Wasn't that just an excuse to persuade the US public to support the idea of going to war?

Have we won in Afghanistan, then? Err.......no.

War is necessary when not going to war means that there is an increased risk of a larger conflict in the short/intermediate term future or when not going to war will allow an aggressive power to conquer/enslave/kill the civilian population of a country.

Oh, and if you want to conquer Belgium, that's always allowed.

Wilt Neville Chamberlain taught us that very nicely, thank you.

Not everyone remembers that though, if you want to live in peace then never be afraid to go to war.

Just my opinion. If you procrastinate then you lose valuable time to prepare, as soon as war is inevitable, strike first, strike hard and take out their ability to coordinate an organised counter-attack, that buys you time to make a second strike hitting their infrastructure, then their military which should be just about ready to begin to strike back.

Best way to avoid war? Live on an island, have a ginormous navy and keep the envious mob of lesser nations at arms length.

Yeah, Britain never got in any wars using that system.

Yeah, the 1916 rising, or, How not to start an armed uprising against an occupying force.
That was farcical, the attacks were meant to happen on the Sunday but had to be cancelled, word got to the rebels all around the country about that but not that it was rescheduled for the Monday, so Dublin erupted into war while the rest of the country enjoyed the Easter bank holiday and the Brits only had one pocket of resistance to deal with. Fucking amateurs.
