when did congress declare war ?
As you well know, it never did. Since World War II Congress has been happy to authorize action, stand aside, rather than embrace a declaration of war. Heck, even when attacked in 2001, they wouldn’t. Granted, there is a bit of disagreement over our enemy but imagine if we had discussed a declaration of war against Saudi Arabia, bet they would have been more forthcoming then and since in stopping the nation’s and their nation’s citizens from funding and waging war against us.
