For every country America is currently bombing that you can’t name, take a shot. Fun, huh? You’ll probably get one or two at least. I mean Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan are kind of obvious, but can you name the others? Did you realize there were others?
According to the Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the US Constitution, the President of the United States is not supposed to go to war with another country unless Congress (the theoretical representatives of the people) vote on it and allow him to. Only Congress can initially commit our troops into a new battle, not the President. Strange then, that we are actually actively dropping bombs on seven different countries, yet we’re not officially at war with anyone. Seven? Yep, the President (Commander in Chief) is currently dropping bombs on seven different countries. Some estimates put these bombings at having killed up to 1.5 million people so far. Yet… Congress hasn’t declared war on anyone.
