I would think this would be obvious.
Given a brief looking over history there are only three primary reasons for starting a war
1 - over your imaginary friend (god)
2 - because they look / act different than you (race)
3 - paper invoking the name of your imaginary friend on it (money)

the reasons become mushed and blurred by a million things, but that is basically the root of every war.
But the question was, Why would you start a war?

OT: I would start a war against anyone who is ignorant, hell even other Christians, Ignorance is most certainly not bliss. Other examples:

-Nazi's
-Rednecks
-Homophobes (Who hate homosexuals)
-Atheists who won't SHUT THE FUCK UP
-Any religious extremist group

The only good reason for war is to preserve freedom!
Ok, I have always been really pissed when Americans talk about "freedom," and how they are defending their "freedoms." Considering how far global warming is, the last thing you need to worry aobut right now is too much government. In a hundred years, you'll be lucky to have any order at all at this rate. Also, the only way the U.S. will ever lose freedoms from a foreign power would be if it were invaded by a foreign power. Without technology to shoot down nukes, cruise missiles, aircraft (which could drop bombs or fire missiles or even shoot a laser, apparently) this would be quite the proposition indeed. Not to mention the most military funding in the world, (scared of China? They spend less on their military) Americans don't need to worry about their "freedom" being taken by a a bunch or people on the other side of the world amred with nothing but anti-american sentiment and AK-47's. Jesus Christ, they talk about how powerful their military and how they are "number 1" and then ***** about impoverished people on the other side of the world making the U.S. not "free" anymore. The only way they could do that is if they invaded the U.S.

The hypocracy is unbelievable, they talk about how great their military is, and then use the excuse that people with bolt rifles are going to take away their freedom as an excuse to attack them. Good lord. So anyway, this is an example of a BAD reason to go to war.

to answer I would not start a war, thus my approach of stating the common reasons for war. Which oddly enough everyone seems to be generally supporting. The only change I would have to make would be to broaden religion to belief system.

...I would , however, defend myself if attacked

I agree though ignorance is not bliss.
Ignorance of how a bomb functions does not negate its effects upon you.
Fairly simple how that little things works itself out...
