Everything you say could be true, but it doesn't address the comment you responded to. The Constitution requires a declaration of war by Congress. The War Powers Act gives the president the authority to respond to a military emergency for 90 days, giving the Congress time to make such a declaration. Neither of those things have triggered in this case.

- kevin_thibedeau 8y agoEverybody in Congress is too chicken shit to declare war because they don't want it on their voting record when things go bad.
