As Shakespeare said, “Cry havoc, and let slip the dogs of war.”

He put those words in the mouth of Mark Antony, with the meaning, "let the soldiers pillage and create chaos". Be careful what you wish for.

We are closer to war than we have been since December 1860, but the die is not cast. Let us take care not to make the situation worse.

If they pass this "law" with a majority in the House, multiple channels of relief other than war are available, and will be used. If they send the Senate bill to Obama without passing it in the House, especially if Biden overrules the parliamentarian and his ruling is upheld on the floor, and if Obama signs it, then a truly unprecedented situation will exist and things may quickly slip out of control.
