When you say "simplification of the whole situation", I doubt you understand my point. My comment was not related to a specific situation, but the nature of most wars in human history. Generally there is an aggressor who wants to remove a group of people from existence or convert them (to whatever - religion, political, way of life, economic, forced labor, etc) and you have another side fighting for freedom, security, the weak. There have been conflicts between parties with the same motive of removing the other group from the face of the earth, but generally history shows there was a right and a wrong, at least measured by our common moral standards.
