Fine, this time follow the constitution and have congress declare war on Iran; outline an objective for the Commander in Chief to accomplish; commit the full backing of the US government resources to fulfill the mandate and put it up for a vote.
One stumbling stone we have with our government today is, the members we recently elected. We have a bunch of chickens instead of a flock of hawks. They only care about the power they have achieved, not the safety and well being of these United States or it’s citizens.
As for the state department......they are just a can of worms when it comes to Americans travelling outside our borders. They’re only interested in their well being and their next promotion.
