If the question is referring to a state in the United States of America, the answer is never. Only the federal government can declare war.

However if war occurred in a state in the United State than a state could protect itself with the national guard.

Should there be a pause between one nation and under God in the pledge of alligiance?

No, there should not. A comma would indicate a pause, but one was not included when the pledge was updated in 1954. To me, saying, "one nation under God" without a pause sounds much better.
