the same law or justification that allows a lion to eat a gazelle - there are things about biological life on this planet that simply are, and while we can recognize them and label them we can't really do anything about them.Again, a claim.
Under what law or justification?
since the first single celled organism devoured a different organism for sustenance the natural law of life on earth was established, and what you're talking about is just an extension of that.
sure, as humans we've developed civilization and a prefrontal cortex and such, but the concept of ousting an existing claimant in order to lay claim to a territory is a concept as old as life itself.
that doesn't need a legal justification or a law to grant it, it simply *is*.
