Yeah, but nobody has given a shit about that since like... Korea?

Even if we ignore the fact that he can easily coax our useless congress into agreeing, the entire government has done nothing but dance around this requirement ever since the end of WWII. You won't see a congressional declaration of war unless its literally WWIII.

You’re right Bernie! But how are you, I, or anyone else going to stop him? I mean, somebody’s gotta do it…

Seems pretty epicly pointless to try to force a vote against Israel's interests in the US congress. It will be unanimously shot down, like every other bill that Israel has any interest in.. Sanders know this. So why is he pretending a vote in congress is the big goal that we need to make noise about?

Sanders wont even call the war on Palestine a genocide. If he wants to actually do something effective here he should be forcing AIPAC to be registered as a foreign lobby, like JFK tried to do right before he was assassinated. Otherwise Bernie is just wasting everyone's time, and keeping the left busy yelling for a vote to happen that we have absolutely zero chance of winning.

We haven't followed that law in so long though

In the case of war on Iran, Trump successfully ended it, or ended so far. Congress as part of the zionist first rule over America would definitely have authorized it, and may have been behind "discrediting the success" report leaks, in order to extend the war. Israel did fail to provide immunity from war crime repercussions, and so likely happy, at citizen level, with ceasefire. But congress is no threat to zionist supremacy, and a debate procedure, just legitimizes the illusion of non tyranny.

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

Taco’s a bitch, he’s leaking all this to get leverage to make a deal. He’ll pussy out and Iran knows it. They’re playing the same games with him but from a position of knowing he’s full of shit

2/3 of Congress is owned by AIPAC so it wouldn't make a difference anyway.

uhhh ok sure but that doesn't mean loopholes exist

and like loopholes the founders knew abt, like its by design that the POTUS moves the military arround

to say that this is illegal isnt sensible, you might be against it but still
