"Go-To-War-Checklist" For World Leaders

Its seems that in the recent past some countries have gotten themselves into wars that they never really intended to conduct. Here is a "Go-to-War-Checklist" for world leaders that is strictly based on common sense and will definitely help to establish whether or not they are ready , able and willing to use armed forces:

1.
Do you want to avoid casualties amongst your troops at all cost?

2.
Are you concerned about civilian casualties amongst your own population but even more so
amongst your enemy's population?
3.
Does the expression "Humanitarian Crisis" cause you anxieties?

4.
Do you threat to be publicly critiqued and personally attacked in countries like France, Germany and
the UK etc.?
5.
Do you believe that a war can be conducted, won and concluded mainly by the use of your Air Force?
6.
Do intend not to invade and/or occupy your enemy's territory in the course of the war?

7.
Are you opposed to the use of disproportional and overwhelming force?

8.
Do you intend to negotiate details of your conflict at the UN and would you
be willing to accept and adhere to UN resolutions?
9.
Are you opposed to the deployment of troop forces by the ratio of 1:10 in proportion to the troop strength of your enemy?
10.
Are you opposed to be personally called a killer, criminal, murderer and warmonger for the rest of your life?

If you have answered any of the above questions with Yes, I do strongly recommend not to consider to go to war. You are definitely not ready to conduct a war in a way to finish it by winning it!
