Pearls and Irritations

Frank Brennan on the fog of war As conflict spreads across the Middle East, the moral test of war returns to first principles – legality, justification and the danger of acting in blindness.

Preventative war risks removing all limits on the use of force. Drawing on just war teaching and the Gospel story of sight and blindness, Frank Brennan says the current conflict with Iran fails the moral test.

Sadly, this is an opportune time to question whether even #justwar theory applies in the contemporary context. Modern munitions weren't on the horizon in the Middle Ages.

Ethics of bombing military targets near civilians Shared via Claude, an AI assistant from Anthropic

Does Claude "think" differently about military ethics when we vary the descriptions of houses of worship that might be destroyed in an attack? Initial prompts suggest 'yes' but I can't rule out the possibility this is an order effect

Positive Peace If William James is right, then the absence of war isn’t really peace; it is only time used to prepare for the next war.

The Villanelle felt like the right tone — somber. But the sonnet begged for a punchline acknowledging Thomas Aquinas’ treatise on Just War from Summa Theologica (II-II, Q. 40).

Either way…this timeline we’re in is dumb, disappointing and confounding.

And trying to backfill this after you have started the war is not moral deliberation and doesn't make for a #JustWar. That's propaganda.
