“Congress doesn’t have a whole lot of core responsibilities,” said Barack Obama last week in an astonishing remark.
For in the Constitution, Congress appears as the first branch of government. And among its enumerated powers are the power to tax, coin money, create courts, provide for the common defense, raise and support an army, maintain a navy and declare war.

And don't forget Russia has sent warships into the Meridian Sea to attack Saudi Arabia if we attack Syria.
Also don't forget, arms dealers, of which the U.S. is one, sells weapons to both sides of any war.
Little Johnny won't be coming home but arms dealers will already be home counting their millions and billions of dollars.
Which lie will they come up with this time to justify another illegal war(s)?
