What for? Does it have jurisdiction over the UN? Countries that back Iran?

It has jurisdiction over the President, although its Constitutionality has never been tested in a Court. He can do what he likes for 90 days without consulting anyone, least of all the countries that are backing an enemy nation.

Again, you're daydreaming. Plus it would be a stupid thing to do. Like it or not, He has to play politics with our "Allies" regardless of what you think of them. If and when Bush can get them all to agree with a deal to divide up the spoils (Iran) then it will be bombed. In regards to people thinking our troops are stretched thin, they only focus on Iraq, and count heads in the pacific/SK. They completely ignore assets sitting in all those "stans". Iran is basically surrounded. With the navy clogging up the gulf, There is plenty of power there to deal with Iran, and then some. It's not numbers that is a problem. It's all ther politiking going on, and will go on until there's nothing left to talk about.
