However, this form of racism rejects racial rights and instead calls for active racial competition among races towards achieving mastery and territorial dominance. This is a form of racial survival for the fittest in which there is no belief of the existence of racial rights (McCulloch 2010, p. 1). Despite the negative connotation of racism, there is a need to have some form of racism, but in a positive manner. Arguably some form of racism is necessary. For example, there is a need to socially map and define the racial landscape and this cannot be done without the use of some form of racism. This has indeed been a historically compelled action because throughout history, racial lines have naturally existed between men and thus could not be ignored (Pataki & Levine 2004, p. 87-90). Therefore, it can be conclusively stated that the society cannot cast a blind eye to racism; especially moral racism. Racism cannot be totally neglected and it has to exist amongst humanity. Two other examples of why moral racism may be necessary include race-based medicine and racial profiling. Despite the controversy that surrounds racism, it can be generally agreed that these two are necessary in aspects such as medicine and crime, and as such the racism aspect may not be neglected. For example, racial-based medicine seeks to determine conditions that are prevalent in some races in comparison to others. This may be exemplified by obesity and sickle celled anemia both of which are prevalent among black Americans. Therefore, such race-based medical profiling is not immoral in itself, but rather a natural and positive racial consideration that may yield positive results if focused on improving and researching on certain medical conditions of importance...

1). Similarly, racial profiling in cases such as crime resolution is not really racial, but rather a racial approach towards seeking societal solutions. Therefore, it is totally difficult to do away with racial considerations in such circumstances.
In conclusion, the question as to whether all races should be considered equally goes back to considerations of ethical stands on whether there is actually a just preservation of individual rights, life and liberty. Racism is a naturally occurring phenomenon that has been widely understood to be a negative aspect in the society largely due to the manner in which it has been expressed through the Darwinian approach of competition among races; with each race seeking to dominate the other. In the end, this has led to social and economic inequalities as well as injustices throughout time thus giving the strong negative connotation of racism which is hence identified with suppression and denial of basic rights to some races. However, alongside this form of racism, there has always existed a form of racism that has been moral and considerate to the enhancement of justice and equality based on all races.

The Relevance of Ethics in Contexts of Military Conflicts

In basic terms, ethics comprise of all those standards by which an individual or group of individuals is expected to abide based on values. Hence ethical values basically take into consideration what is considered right or wrong and in that regard, such values prevail over values considered unethical when it comes to the ethical decision making process. As Annen and Royl (2010, p. 82) note, the relevance of familiarizing soldiers with the standards of moral behavior at the
