On December 8, 1941, the Congress passed a joint resolution which said, in part, the President is...DIRECTED to employ the entire naval and military forces of the United States and the resources of the Government to carry on war against the Imperial Government of Japan; and, to bring the conflict to a successful termination, all the resources of the country are hereby pledged by the Congress of the United States"
That is a perfectly balanced, and Constitutionally correct, way to go to war.
Congress DIRECTS the Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy raised BY Congress to go to war, and Congress PLEDGES full support.
Do it that way, and victory is possible. Do it half-assed, and victory is not possible.
That is a perfectly balanced, and Constitutionally correct, way to go to war. I agree, but who, exactly, are we declaring war upon? Syria? Turkey? “Some” of the Kurds, but not some of the others?
