Any judgment of a war that sets aside moral and ethical issues is an invalid judgment.

I don't know about invalid, but its certainly irrelevant.

So how would you explain the many wars throughout history that have been waged for gain? I don't think "invalid" or "irrelevant" have much to do with those real cases. I'm trying to take a realist's view of the situation. Morals and ethics usually only go so far when it gets to the nitty-gritty.
The world operates on ethics and morals only to an extent, and that extent changes with conditions and perceptions.

If your point is that wars have been fought for gain, we agree.
