Baldrick becomes unsure in Blackadder's rendition of World War 1 of how the war started and believes that World War 1 was started because a bloke called Archie Duke was hungry so he shot an Ostrich. Which is obviously not a good reason to go to war, however, was World War 1 a justified conflict?
Is the assassination of a member of your countries Royal Family a good enough reason to threaten another country? Should you always support your allies in a time of conflict even if you don't agree with them?
The causes of World War 1 are complicated and varied in importance. But is war ever justified?
