There was a legitimate question at the time American troops were committed to Iraq, whether our action conformed to the Augustinian “Just War” tradition with its various criteria: just cause, proper authority, right intention, last resort, and the like. I felt the just war standards were met by the threat presented.
Obviously I cannot speak for religions other than my own Christianity in the treatment of women. It would certainly appear to an outsider that women have fared very badly, and continue to today, in the Islamic world.
Under our Constitution, there can be no religious test for office. That does not mean, however, that candidates should not make known their religious beliefs.
