UNCONSTITUTIONAL War on Iran shows SYSTEMIC BREAKDOWN in the United States
—Jim Webb, Former Senior Foreign Policy Advisor to RFK Jr. and USMC veteran
‘What you’re seeing is, unfortunately, a systemic breakdown all across the board, whether it’s members of this administration getting rich left and right. That was a very big part of the blanketed sanctions around the world.
There were a couple instances where you had a direct line between investments by people on the inside, such as relatives of the President, to sanctioned countries. And then once deals were agreed to in the private sector, those sanctions were released.
But you have to trace another thread here. The entire system in the United States is being run over at record pace.
The war in Iran itself was unconstitutional. We have a very strict process in the US which has been watered down over time, unfortunately.
To go to war, that power is vested exclusively in Congress. It’s Article 1, Section 8. They have the power to make war. And in Article 2, the President has the task of being the commander in chief, or repelling sudden attack — not attacking.
And even if you take a look at the War Powers Resolution, which allows the executive branch to make a common sense decision should there be an imminent threat of hostilities, they can launch an attack for defensive reasons in order to defend our forces or our interests overseas.
That didn’t apply here.’
