Trump will not have warned all Republicans, not warned anyone from the Democratic Party, and Congress would be “dark” about the surprise decision to attack Iran at dawn on Saturday. But the United Kingdom was.
Republican congressmen and democrats condemned this Saturday three nuclear facilities in Iran, confirmed by President Donald Trump, denouncing that the decision was unconstitutional and should have passed Congress.
“This is not constitutional”wrote on social networks the republican congressman Thomas Massie, citing the message in which Trump announced the attack.
Democrat Jim Himes recalled that congressmen like him must have a word to say about these subjects “before the bombs fall,” something that his party colleague Alexandria occasion-cortez reiterated, saying that ” disastrous decision of the president of bombing Iran without permission is a Rude violation of the Constitution and the powers of congress war ”.
Sean Casten, also a representative of the Democratic Party, said that independently “the merits of the nuclear program of Iran”, Neither Trump nor any other president of the United States has authority “to bomb another country that does not represent an imminent threat to the United States.”

“This constitutes a unequivocal crime that justifies the dismissal”Defended Casten.
According to the US Constitution, only Congress has the power to declare war on a country. The attack on Iranian facilities is an act of war against Iran, which was directly attacked by Israel a week ago, with the two countries to exchange attacks ever since.
Since a week ago Trump implied that the United States could come into the conflict alongside Israel against Iran, the US forces should intervene and risk being dragged to another conflict in the Middle East, something the president has not excluded.
The attacks were surprised to almost everyone – but the Kingdom wiseconfirmed the country’s secretary of business.
