I'm curious why you feel it IS a fair approach if one is against ALL wars, but it's not a fair approach if one opposed to this particular war and is making the argument with regard to this particular war.

Do you view it as a fair approach if one is against ALL (unwarranted/unjustified/unnecessary) wars?

Help me to understand that distinction you are drawing.
