With the looming possibility of an armed conflict between Iraq and the United States and its allies, the U.S. Institute of Peace hosted a special symposium to examine various aspects of the question: "Would an invasion of Iraq be a 'just war'?" Part of an ongoing series of public workshops and symposiums organized by the Institute's Religion and Peacemaking Initiative, the session featured a distinguished panel of experts on religion, ethics, and international conflict.

Moderated by David Smock, director of the Institute's Religion and Peacemaking Initiative, the discussion was webcast live and followed by questions from the floor and the Internet audience.
