Violence is inherently harmful.
Some people and institutions do deserve to be harmed. Those people and institutions are almost never who actually gets harmed in war. War sucks.
do you know what's harmful? capitalism. i'd suffer every pain for the world to achieve socialism. yes, you might not believe it, having a comfortable life in the global north, but there are people willing to be harmed to achieve liberation.

The Korean war was again a war of liberation despite it being instigated by the US and it's client state.
And so on.
