as retarded as this is, the verbiage is intentional.
first of all, Iran technically declared war on us back in the 90s and has considered themselves in a state of war with the US since.
secondly, the president of the United States does not have the power to declare war, Congress must do that. the last time the United States actually declared war was against the Axis powers in world war II. every war after that, korea, vietnam, the Gulf war, afghanistan, iraq, etc has technically been a military operation in the eyes of US law. Johnson cannot say the word "war" because it would insinuate a formal declaration which would be illegal without sign off from Congress.
of course, Congress cannot agree on anything because they are all partisan hacks. Waiting on congress for any military action is practically inviting our enemies to attack us while we deliberate endlessly.
Still, the military operation with Iran should not be our fight and Trump should have simply let Israel to fend for itself. we've all heard the "nuclear weapon in a week" bullshit since the year 2000 at least.
this clip is the culmination of half a century of retardation within the United States government.

When was that?

I did hear this from Dinesh D'Souza. Congress won't agree to declare war on another country, so this means the president has the right to unilaterally start wars.
While what you say is true, I hope everyone understands that we (the U.S., OPEC, NATO, and Israel), have been the much, much bigger belligerent and aggressor in the area, comparative to Iran, or anyone else. To properly analyze a situation and pass correct judgment, we must be honest with ourselves and not be logically inconsistent.
We've bombed almost every nation and people in the area that are opposed to Israel, or in the way of the Greater Israel project, or oppose central banking, or oppose the use of the petro dollar, or have tried to institute a gold backed currency (circumventing the petro dollar and central bankers). Numerous times, we've armed, trained, funded, manned, and often led "rebel" groups, that have started or become terrorist groups later on. For example, the Taliban, which we initially supported to oppose the Soviets, and who later became our enemies because of 9/11, due to the war propaganda to get us involved in Afghanistan, to protect poppy fields, which resulted in the opioid crises in the U.S., even though the government knew Bin Laden wasn't in Afghanistan, and that the Taliban wasn't guilty of 9/11 (Israel and the CIA were). Another example is the Libyan rebels we armed and supported to oust Gaddafi, because he was instituting a gold backed currency, which would be harmful to the petro dollar and the bankers. Another example is the Syrian civil war, which was entirely caused by the West, as we (the CIA and Mossad) created, manned, led, trained, armed, and funded the rebel factions which turned into ISIS, leading to the deaths of millions. The CIA and Israel also used their control of the media to put out fake stories of Assad using chemical weapons against his own people, and, one of the primary reasons we wanted to oust Assad is that he was in the way of the Greater Israel project.
If we're being honest, if we're being logically consistent, we would understand why Middle Easterners hate Americans, we would understand why Iran calls us "big Satan", and why they've used proxy forces to attack us for decades, because we've been neck deep in bullshit over there (out own doing), for decades.
We don't have to take the false position that Islam is good, or that Muslims are friendly, to know that we (the people in power of the West) are the bad guys, and that what we're doing to Iran is just an extension of a long line of evil we've perpetrated. Remember, that false dichotomies are how the people in power manipulate us. We don't have to accept or fall into their traps.
I couldn't find footage from before 2010, but the entire Iranian Parliament has been chanting chanting "death to America" in sessions ever since they attacked the embassy in 1979 (70s, not 90s, I did get the dates wrong).
if that's not a declaration of war, I don't know what is.
Got it. So according to you Americans, bombing another country isn't a war, but a chant that hurts your precious feelings is. A country of sociopaths and lunatics. Everybody hates you, and rightly so.
BTW, does this mean you're going to invade Iraq again? They're chanting "death to America" because you're murdering people again.

If Iran has been technically at war with the us for 30 years, Congress has been criminally negligent in not ending it before now.
also true
I for one cannot believe that Congress would ever be criminally negligent
The US technically declared war on Iran in 1953.
When was that?
I did hear this from Dinesh D'Souza. Congress won't agree to declare war on another country, so this means the president has the right to unilaterally start wars.
the only reason dems want oversight is so they can leak the plans
Except they didn't attack us. We attacked them.
They actually have attacked us, several times in fact.

I do not support our current warfare but lets not be retarded. (Current) Iran has been attacking since at least the 90s
You just going to throw things like that out there and never substantiate them in any way?
I guess that is the neocon way.
