The first is the usual form. You would be saying that the other person has asked for your permission to go to war and you would like to deny it. That's the best way I can see to explain it. The second is saying something different and is quite clumsy in the way it says it. It's as though the person is asking you for an exemption from going to war and you want to grant that exception. I hope I've made the difference clear.
