Jedi do not fight for peace. That's only a slogan, and is as misleading as slogans always are. Jedi fight for civilization, because only civilization creates peace. We fight for justice because justice is the fundamental bedrock of civilization: an unjust civilization is built upon sand. It does not long survive a storm. Matthew Woodring Stover
About This Quote

The Jedi order was founded on the principles of justice, truth and peace. The Jedi believe in selflessness and in service to others. The Jedi do not fight simply for the sake of fighting. When they fight, they fight for civilization itself.

They fight for justice because justice is the fundamental bedrock of civilization: an unjust civilization is built upon sand. It does not long survive a storm.
