      In 2001 when The US authorized use of force on Al-Qaeda that, along with The 1973 war powers resolution gave the president (as in the position of president, not just Bush) unlimited ability to bomb anyone loosely associated with Al-Qaeda in perpetuity.

      It’s what allowed Bush, then Obama, then Trump, and then Biden, and now Trump again, to use the military as they see fit for performing military operations against basically any state and group in the middle east.

      ???

      ‘They’ have been planning this strike in earnest at least since the early 00’s, and war with Iran was always part of the plan to fully colonize West Asia. Israel is America’s way to conduct proxy wars in the region, with a degree of autonomy like the Houthis and Iran, but still entirely dependent on their masters. Nothing was going to stop this expected geopolitical move, and don’t think a Democrat would’ve done this any differently… didn’t Biden say we would have to invent Israel if it didn’t exist? (double lol on that one) The mechanics of the empire continue regardless of how things are managed inside…

        When things go the way they’re headed, remember the words of T.E. Lawrence, war with an empire is all flank and no front.

        Maybe reading the book written by the guy who started this mess can help us end it.
