EXCEPT IN A DICTATORSHIP, POWER IS TOO IMPORTANT TO BE LEFT IN THE HANDS OF ONE PERSON. AND UNKIKE THE RUBBER STAMP NATIONAL ASSEMBLY WE HAVE, THE U.S CONGRESS IN FULFILLING THEIR OBLIGATIONS AS ENVISAGED BY THE U.S CONSTITUTION KNOWS THAT A TRUMP WHO AT BEST CAN BE DESCRIBED AS HAVING AUTOCRATIC TENDENCIES CAPABLE OF PLUNGING THE WHOLE WORLD INTO AN UNMITIGATED CRISIS MUST BE CHECKED. THE ACTION PROPOSED IS NOT NEW. SAME ACTION HAS OVER THE YEARS BEEN PASSED BY CONGRESS ESPECIALLY IN WAR TIME TO REGULATE THE ACTIONS OF THE EXECUTIVE IN LINE WITH ITS OVERSIGHT FUNCTIONS

Sometimes look beyond your nose

If Trumps powers isn't reduced, given his mental limitations and mumu like tendencies, he could launch an attack that makes no sense at all

Someone that can go on Twitter and start bragging about Nuclear weapons is not a mentally stable person and can't be trusted
once again the president does not launch attacks. He authorized attacks. The real decision is usually taken by the pentagon and NSA. You people pls learn how the US government works before embarrassing yourselves like this online. You think this attack just happened because Trump woke up and felt like killing soleimani? Are you guys learned at all?

You said it all because of the hatred comment I normally read here,I am.begining to stay careful around christians in real life.i use to think they are very nice people now I understand the kind of hatred they have for Muslims which their Lord never teaches and according to them Bible never teaches.

The same scenario has played out several times in the past.

Does France need any evidence before they support the US? They have common interests and that's all that matters. The Americans will support France militarily not minding what the bone of contention is.

A weakened Iran is desirable for both the US and it's NATO allies in the their quest for total world dominance, so my brother let's scrutinize this latest American story before we believe them.

It's a different president France has in Macron.
Macron has not supported all trump's policies.
Infactvthats why CNN still likes macron.

Trump cannot veto war powers act. The operational use of armed forces is the Presidents power BUT he cannot declare war without congress.

American democracy is funny and requires balancing of power especially since ANYBODY can become President especially this rich man's son who dodged away from Vietnam war, has no political experience and cannot sit down to listen to experts, analyse issues or think deep about anything. Every immature school boy has a hero in Trump.
There is a need to curb his powers to declare war
Did Bush get congressional approval "before" bombing Iraq? No!

If you know Nancy's satanic background you won't be surprised. But the God of America's founding fathers is outlasting them in this GOD's own country. Nancy and her satanic backers never knew people like Trump can become POTUS. They prefer brilliant BETRAYERS like Obama, the Clintons, & their ilk.


If you watch the Iranians procession for this general, you will know that the pelosis of this world knows what is at stake hence their move; the Iranians and their ilks in middle East are ready to die, I doubt if average Americans can do so!!! So let's see who's more Patriotic than the other.

Lol.
A “terrorist” that you only knew about after Trump started tweeting that he was one.

If he was a “terrorist”, why didn’t the US Marines pick up his body like they did to Baghdaddi and Osama?

If he was a “terrorist”, why is America sending Oman, the EU, Switzerland and the U.K. to negotiate and plead on their behalf with Iran not to retaliate?


It was a clear act of war by the Trump regime and the failed attempt to demonise and mischaracterise this isn’t working, thanks to social media. America is acting like a rogue state. This is shameful.

To many Nigerian Christians, it is the USA (Christianity) vs Iran (Islam).

So, due to their ignorance, they are backing the USA.

But what really is the reality?

There are two major divisions in Islam: Sunni and Shiite.

And we all know that Shiite does not trouble anyone, at least nowhere as Sunni. The major problem of the world is Sunni terrorism inspired and sponsored by Saudi Arabia. All the terrorist groups in the world today are Sunni terrorist groups: Al Qaeda, Boko Haram, ISIS, Al-Shabbab...

And yet, it is Iran which does not trouble anyone that they are busy flexing muscles at. They don't have any problem with the Jewish and Sunni terrorism that has ravaged America since the 90s.

Who could ever forget the 9/11 bombing of the World Trade Centres perpetrated by Sunni terrorists?

And yet they will never even covertly accuse Saudi Arabia (the home of Sunni Muslims) of sponsoring terrorism.

What is "peppering" her is that Trump actions could provoke a more drastic response that could escalate in war, a war which US would definitely win but not without paying the price of loss of lives of a number of it's servicemen.

Trumps action was extremely reckless. Now, everyone is nervous.

The same Trump who ordered for the withdrawal of US troops from Syria now assassinates the 2nd most powerful man in Iran shows how erratic and incomprehensible his actions are.

Pelosi should go further and assuage the feelings of the Iranian Mullah who are determined to revenge this act. The Persians must be made to see this as a solitary act of Trump rather than consensual. The American people or the world's economy must not be made to pay for his senseless act.


The jitters presently is caused by not knowing where the Iranians would strike. They'll definitely hit soft targets that will cause the most damage. Trump should simply have let sleeping dogs lie. His tendencies to wake them is becoming tiresome.

Many have sought to see America lose it's place as World Power and if Trump makes the mistake of going to war with Iran, I pity U.S of A.
The number of countries covertly sympathetic to Iran in this case will shock the blonde out of Trump's mop hair.

Iran should NEVER be underrated.
No good student of international relations and history will make that mistake.

Trump takes pride in his big weapons and heavy military spending and I wonder if he has never seen a big preeked man who still could not use it well on his wife.
