Senator Paul is talking about the eventual escalation.
I guess he feels we should just ALWAYS be pussies because of the EVENTUAL consequences GIVE ME A DAMN BREAK!!! Solamani was in Iraq BECAUSE he never dreamed we had the balls enough to hit him, WELL he was DEAD WRONG!!!
> Senator Paul is talking about the eventual escalation. <
Right. Nowhere does Paul say that the strike was a bad thing, a terrible thing. Instead he is saying that the quaint old Constitution must be followed if a major action is contemplated.
If we are to go to war w/ Iran the Constitution dictates that we declare war.
There won't be any escalation other than the Iranians continuing to do what they have been doing for years........And when they do, NOW there will be retaliation as we have just witnessed....
Taking out this general is the equivalent of taking out Patton early in WW-II...Imagine how that would have affected our military.
This guy will be replaced, and likely already has, but his replacement won't have any of the knowledge and the respect this guy gained the past 20 years.
