    I support the attack because Assad must be held accountable for the use of chemical weapons.

        @SenBillNelson there is is no congressional approval, as a floridan, I am disappointed in your reaction.

        If it’s truly a just cause, shouldn’t Congress give an authorization of military force, Senator? This war is not a continuation of the post-9/11 authorization. I, too am a disappointed Floridian. Compassion for the Syrians can’t just be missiles here and there at our convenience.

        You're missing the technical definition here - it's not a WAR, they are STRIKES. There is a distinct legal definition there....

        I’m thinking the Syrians believe they’re living in a war. But their civil war is not ours. Our national interests aren’t threatened, theirs are. So our “strikes” are inserted into their war. And AUMFs are legally required.

        Replying to @tesolmary @DrPMX and

        Since chemical weapons were used, actions taken to destroy those weapons are "in the interest of national security" and covered under the War Powers Act. That allows these strikes without congressional approval. I hope that helps.

        PRECISELY! Hence why Mattis specifically pointed to the fact that deterring the use of chemical weapons is "VITAL" to US interests. Thanks for helping me out on this one, I was losing my mind lol

        You're sick. Killing civilians because civilians were killed is not logical. It's insane.

        He shouldn’t have done it at all. Congress shouldn’t have approved it even if he did. We shouldn’t be unilaterally appointing ourselves as the world’s cop.
