HR 1553 Authorizing ‘Use of Force’ Against Iran is Based on Pure Propaganda
America has not officially declared war on a nation since World War II. Yet we are now entangled in endless wars with no feasible goals, except sustained military profits and resource grabs.
Instead, Congress votes to “authorize the use of force” just in case we may need it, which strategically limits the public debate. Although many believe that the stiff Iran sanctions detailed in HR 2194, the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act was an Act of War, the Republican proposed HR 1553 is the actual authorization of the “use of military force” backing Israel’s right to “use any means necessary” to protect itself from Iran, including preemptive strikes.
HR 1553: Expressing support for the State of Israel’s right to defend Israeli sovereignty, to protect the lives and safety of the Israeli people, and to use all means necessary to confront and eliminate nuclear threats posed by the Islamic Republic of Iran, including the use of military force if no other peaceful solution can be found within reasonable time to protect against such an immediate and existential threat to the State of Israel.
And now… the rest of the story. …..
