Comment on So um, america just started another war in the middle east. We're going to need a shit ton more memes to distract americans from the nightmare they are enduring. Thanks in advance...
The US hasn’t declared war since 1942. It goes back way further than W or Obama.
what was declared during korea or vietnam?
Korea was a UN “police action” and Vietnam was a “conflict.”
Crucially, Congress did not formally declare war in either case, nor did they for the Gulf wars, Afghanistan, Iraq, Grenada, etc.
