Ok I concede there are exceptions but I think even in justified war the government is full of shit. The propaganda gets pumped out in full force during military actions.

Like how Japanese internment in America wasn't justified, even if involvement in WW2 was.

Now there's something that sounds like an insane conspiracy theory but actually happened.

There are people alive today who survived the Japanese internment. For example George Takei https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Takei
