Just war theory

Do you belive in the Just War theory?
I think it's a good set of guidelines but that is all they are used for by many, even in the middle ages you needed a Just reason to go to war and back then they marched on the Holy Crusades.
I'm all for a Just resion to go to war but do World leaders allways have a Just cause in mind or do they use it as only a facade?

Whats your view?

There's only been 1 just war in recent history, and that was WWII.

Leaders might think they're doing something noble and just, like I honestly believe Dubya really thought he was doing God's work by invading Iraq, but really they're just deluding themselves or being used as puppets, in Dubya's case, by the real power in the world, which is private corporations and banking power.
