If Congress set a restrictive ROE, would that supersede the orders of the CINC, in your opinion?
The president has "supreme command and direction of the military and naval forces, as first general and admiral of the confederacy" - Alexander Hamilton, Federalist #69 You would subordinate the CINC's 'command and direction' of the military to Congress?
Congress has the power to declare war, the President the power to wage war. You propose that Congress should do both.
Read the Constitution.
There are no restrictions, indeed, there is a Section calling for Regulation of the military by the Congress.
But, hey, you go ahead and believe counter to the Constitution.
Congress is authorized to: raise and support Armies [and] provide and maintain a Navy; furthermore To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions and To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States; finally To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces.
