Interview: “The U.N. Charter absolutely prohibits one country from aggressively attacking another country, using force against another country, unless that country has attacked us — and Iran had not attacked us.”

"Trump famously told the NYT it’s just his own sense of morality that limits him, nothing else. And as we’ve seen, that’s not a meaningful limit."

Democracy Now!

@DrALJONES

Has congress declared it war in any way?

Then it's not a war, no different from Iraq 20 year unfounded BS for industrial military complex stealing tax dollars helping to fund an overthrow, (trillion dollar defense - um war department) which starts wars with more lies and no one does a damn thing about it.
Testing to see how far one can go? OVER AND OVER!!

@SCALETHEORY

It's defined as a war of aggression - "crime against peace"

@DrALJONES
That what we called the 20 year aggression on Iraq, filled with lies, torture, and missing cash on a pallet?

"How the US sent $12bn in cash to Iraq. And watched it vanish"

"The Iraq Invasion 20 Years Later: It Was Indeed a Big Lie That ..."

Repeat history for the profit of aggression? Oh, a shortage of munitions, makes them more expensive, correct?

All BS excuses to raise prices and is unsustainable, to an ultimate crash and burn outcome.
