I think Congress never voted on any of them and so they were never defined by the US as being at war. They were all military operations from the instruction of the president.

Unfortunately our Constitution isn’t worth the paper its gift shop reproductions are printed on. Unfortunately, it’s been that way for a long, long time.

Come on it is not a war, but a special military operation....

Biden/Harris would have done something similar to defend Israel from the consequences of its actions. Biden did bomb Yemen after all when it tried to stop the genocide. Biden is a self admitted Zionist and defended Israel’s invasion of Lebanon and supported the invasion of Iraq. Harris did nothing to distance herself from him.
Yeah, in most regards kamala would've been better, but this is Israel. She may have been less gung ho, which would be better for a handful of Iranians benefitting from slightly fewer bombs, but not better enough

He’s. it useless. He’s just alone.
AOC and him are the only Democrats speaking out throughout this whole shit show -
He should also be aware of this legislation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authorization_for_Use_of_Military_Force_of_2001
... since he voted for it.
It allows military actions against any country that harbours al Qaeda... and Iran does harbour al Qaeda along with any terrorist group that aligns with their "death to Israel / America" dogma.
The whole civil war in Syria was an example. Assad was being backed by Iran, Syria's current president Ahmed al-Sharaa started as an al Qaeda fighter because al Qaeda was aligned against the government, whereas Hezbollah backed it.
You can't understand the middle east unless you understand the Shia and Sunni groups and their hostility towards each-other. Pretending Iran supports anybody that says "death to America" means you're about as knowledgeable about middle east politics as George W. Bush who tried to explain everything with "they hate us for our freedoms".

And people really think congress wouldnt vote for war? Lol...

Ok, so he breaks the law, AGAIN… that’ll be how many times? And how many consequences? And how will he be punished? Who will punish him? Remember, this is an insurrectionist that the administration from 17-21 did not go after because it would have been “taken as political”. So, again, who cares what the law says, because he doesn’t.
Eh, he's not the first president to do so. Not to dismiss your own anger at this, but not everything can be the absolute last straw.

Went thru the same shit with Bush 20 years ago.

And if they do so be it, it's just a consequence of our representational democracy, however, it is their decision.

Indeed. Congress had 20 years to put up some guard rails, but didn't.

we keep ending up killing people in other countries
Excuse me, this is called "defending our interests".
Ironically a war with Iran is against America’s interests. Before Trump was president most conservative war hawks vehemently opposed a war with Iran even though Netyahoo has been claiming they’re “6 months away from mass producing nuclear weapons” since 1995.

Why do you let them set the narrative that a precedent of wrongdoing legitimizes future trespasses?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Im only pointing out that Bernie’s tweet is political posturing. The president had used troop deployments to enter wars that congress did not approve. Bernie acting like him tweeting how it’s illegal is gonna do anything is so stupid.
Don’t get me wrong I love Bernie but again this is political posturing. Propose articles of impeachment or stfu. Btw we’re already “at war” with Iran. Ted Cruz confirmed that they approved the missile strikes and have been providing guidance and support to maintain Israel’s advantage.

This is why Congress passed the War Powers Resolution. It's an open question whether the law matters.
Every President says they are not constrained, Congress says that they are. The Supreme Court says, "this is a political question, not a legal question, so the executive and legislative have to sort it out".
The Supreme Court lied when they said that btw
-
Remember Vietnam?
The president has the power to deploy the military even without a declaration
In the sense that if you take power you don't deserve you have it

I think most of those congressional powers have been eroded for a very long time.

How does this excuse genocide?
is trump stopping the genocide, radio? No?
Then you fell for the dupe. you got conned. you fell for the bait. In your arrogance you are now rooting for a war with iran because you think you are smarter than everyone else.
Revel in it while you can, while the US races to bomb Iran. Again. Feel the peace flowing through your veins. And when it stagnates you can pretend you are a both sider like all the other arrogant voters who think they are somehow experts in middle eastern conflicts.
