Well there is the third way which most elected officials and judges seem to use today. Ignore it.

I’ll quote Henry Hyde.

“There are things in the Constitution that have been overtaken by events, by time. Declaration of war is one of them. There are things no longer relevant to a modern society. Why declare war if you don’t have to? We are
saying to the President, use your judgment. So, to demand that we declare war is to strengthen something to death. You have got a hammerlock on this situation, and it is not called for. Inappropriate, anachronistic, it isn’t done anymore.”

Your reference to the Congressional prerogative of declaring wars is quite correct and well-taken. However, there are certain people who are more against some wars (WWII, the WOT) than they are others (Korea, Vietnam). It all seems to depend on the perception as to whether or not Jews benefit too much.

And I'm not Jewish.
