United States and Israeli attacks against Iran were without provocation.
The Constitution gives authority to declare war to Congress. (Const. Art. I, sec 8.)
Congress has not declared war.
The War Powers Act is a work-around.
trump has disregarded the War Powers Act & says it is unconstitutional.
The U.N. Charter, Art. 2(4) prohibits use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any country.
The U.S. Senate ratified the U.N. Charter by a vote of 89–2 on 28 July 1945.
A treaty IS the law of the land. (Const. Art VI, cl 2.)
From the first attacks on February 28, 2026, U.S. military forces have killed innocent Iranian civilians. (See, Julian Barnes, et al, “U.S. at Fault in Strike on School in Iran, Preliminary Inquiry Says,” NYT, 3/11/26)
By today’s announcement, trump is saying he will commit war crimes.
For nearly eight months the U.S. has illegally attack Iran.
U.S. citizens who do not speak out against trump’s war crimes committed on Iran are as culpable as Germans in 1939 were for the war crimes of the former Austrian corporal.
