I understand what you said, but isn’t a Declaration of War required? Wishy-washy shit doesn’t cut it.
Yes we should have declared war and then step back and let the military do it’s job and keep politics out of it.
Had the military been allowed to do it’s job vice playing politics and political correctness we’d have been out of Afghanistan years ago, the Taliban and Al Qaeda would have been decimated and would think twice about ever attacking Americans anywhere ever again. Muslims and/or anyone else would think twice about fxcking with America.
To do so however, requires a set of balls and courage. American politicians and the so called POS in the WH have neither.
