U.S. launches strike against Islamic State forces in Nigeria, Trump says
"Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!" the president posted on his social media site.https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/u-s-launches-st...The regime screams about the Islamic boogyman in Venezuela. Venezuela has oil.
The regime screams about the Islamic boogyman in Nigeria. Nigeria has oil.
The regime screams about the Islamic boogyman in Syria. Syria is on Israel's flank, and has a bit of oil.
The Bush 43 regime screamed about the Islamic boogyman in Iraq. Iraq has oil.
I am sure that is all a coincidence. God and Savior Trump is making the world safe for Christians. The oil has nothing to do with it.

"The Afghanistan War was not formally declared by Congress; instead, it was initiated under the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) passed shortly after the September 11 attacks in 2001. This allowed the U.S. to engage in military action against those responsible for the attacks, primarily targeting al-Qaeda and the Taliban."
"The U.S. invasion of Panama in December 1989 was not officially declared as a war by Congress; instead, it was termed "Operation Just Cause." The U.S. government justified the invasion by citing the need to protect American citizens and restore democracy in Panama."
"The U.S. invasion of Grenada in 1983 was not officially declared as a war by Congress; instead, it was conducted under the code name "Operation Urgent Fury" and was justified by President Reagan as a necessary action to protect American citizens and counter perceived threats from the Soviet Union and Cuba. The invasion faced significant criticism for lacking formal congressional approval."

As I recall, Congress last spring/summer removed much of the 2002 authorization for military action by POTUS. If something is left, then -as you say- its illegality is debatable. I was under the impression they had rescinded it. In which case, he has to run it by Congress first.
The Afghanistan war, and also Iraq, were waged under the 2002 authorization (so, arguably, legal). I am aware that we have not declared war since 1941. Korea and Vietnam should have required such a declaration. Panama and Grenada may have been "protecting American citizens", or not. I do remember those, and the justifications for them. They were always a little sketchy**. The UN condemned them as they violated the UN charter.
**The medical students in Grenada initially said they were not under threat, when interviewed. I actually remember that interview; I used to watch Nightline consistently.

Mike, you are demonstrating his point. You are using words that were used by the NeoCons back then. Saddam was also a bad guy with a capacity to make trouble.
Well at least we know your America First talk was bullshit. America First means you will support whatever Trump says is America First because that is a requirement of being in the Cult.
What is truly weird though is that there are other people who are bad guys. Some of these bad guys, like Putin, even have even a greater capacity to cause trouble than Maduro, yet you are not clamoring to have Trump curtail his capacity to make trouble. In fact, you regularly support having the U.S. give in to Putin. There is a clear lack of consistency to your views other than you will support whatever Trump wants no matter how illogically inconsistent. That is very cultish.
