Question: Is the cyberwar between Israel and Iran a just war?

Write your case analysis according to these guidelines:

First, write an introductory paragraph that presents in summary (only) the details about the case, using information from both articles, that are relevant to your argument. End with a thesis statement addressing the prompt, e.g., "In this Case Analysis I will argue that [ethical tool] shows us that the cyberwar between Israel and Iran [is/is not] just because [reason]." It's fine for you to address the cyberwar as a whole, or for you to address only the Israeli war against Iran, or for you to address only the Iranian war against Israel.

Next, explain one or more central concepts from Boylan, (b) use that concept or those concepts to analyze the case, and (c) use your selected ethical tool to assess the actions taken in the case, as understood through your analysis, arguing for what you think was the right thing to have done based on this assessment and analysis. (Note: if you want, you can do Taddeo first and Boylan second-you'll see that the instructions for the next section are identical except for switching the authors.)

Then, explain one or more central concepts from Taddeo, (b) use that concept or those concepts to analyze the case, and (c) use your selected ethical tool to assess the actions taken in the case, as understood through your analysis, arguing for what you think was the right thing to have done based on this assessment and analysis.

Finally, summarize your position and make other concluding remarks. Don't make your argument here-you should be making your argument using our authors and your tool for ethical reasoning throughout the entire main part of the paper. The conclusion should summarize the argument and then consider objections or alternate views, respond to those objections, consider wider implications or related cases, and/or consider problems in or drawbacks to your position. Don't try to do all of these different things- do whichever of them you think fits best with your position and argument. Also: Don't be afraid to recognize problems in your argument! Working through moral issues shouldn't be about winning arguments; it should be about trying to figure out the best solutions by presenting arguments, admitting problems and concerns, and listening to and responding to the concerns and arguments of others.
