(1) SPECIFIC STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION- Consistent with section 8(a)(1) of the War Powers Resolution, the Congress declares that this section is intended to constitute specific statutory authorization within the meaning of section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution. (2) APPLICABILITY OF OTHER REQUIREMENTS- Nothing in this resolution supercedes any requirement of the War Powers Resolution.

*************************

You keep pasting long articles that prove MY points, Luis.

"...Consistent with section 8(a)(1) of the War Powers Resolution, the Congress declares that this section is intended to constitute specific statutory authorization within the meaning of section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution.

"...Nothing in this resolution supercedes any requirement of the War Powers Resolution.

Tell me, Luis, where is the Congressional approval to CONTINUE military operations?

That approval is required after 8 months of Presidential action, after which,

"...the President shall terminate any use of United States Armed Forces..."

(SEC. 5. (b) of the War Powers Act)

All you have to do now is to convince me, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, that you are qualified to decide when this mission is over, and the end result achieved.

The reality of the fact is that Congress, has yet to pull financing of this operation, which tells me that they continue to support the president doing whatever he's doing. I am posting all sorts of information that refutes your claims, and all you have been doing is claiming that you can ascertain, from the comfort of your computer desk, when the mission is over, better than the people on the ground there.
