Of Matters of War & The Unites States Of America
Law governing War is found in the Constitution of the U.S., Article.
I., Section 8 and Section 10.
Only Congress may declare war (Constitution U.S., Article. I.,
Section 8., Clause 11).
Congress consists of Senate and House of Representatives
(Constitution U.S., Article. I., Section 1.).
The office of President and the Executive Branch is not Congress.
Congress alone is responsible for providing for the common Defense and
general Welfare of the United States (Constitution U.S., Article. I.,
Section 8., Clause 1).
Only Congress has the exclusive authority to declare war (see Art I,
Sec 8, Clause 17), and only after the declaration of war by
Congress is the President called into service and only at such a point
in time shall the President become the Commander in Chief of the
military: Constitution U.S., Article. II., Section. 2., Clause 1:
The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of
the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when
called into the actual Service of the United States.
The role of the President and Executive Branch of the U.S. Government
is defined in Article II of the Constitution. Article. II., Clause
8, forces the President to take the following Oath or Affirmation:--"I
do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office
of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability,
preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.".
Neither the Executive or the Judicial Branch of the U.S. Government
is entitled to enact law or declare war. The separation of power
in this regard is explicit and absolute.
Any officer of the U.S. Government, including the President shall be
removed from office for committing any crime, including a misdemeanor.
Article. II., Section. 4.: The President, Vice President and all civil
Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on
Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high
Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Other key War related law that is being unconstitutionally ignored by
the current government is that when war is declared, Congress may only
collect money for no more than two years to support the army:
Constitution U.S., Article. I., Section 8. Clause 12: To raise and
support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a
longer Term than two Years;
Article 1, Section 10: "No State shall, without the Consent of
Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in
time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another
State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually
invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay."
Clearly the U.S. Government is in extreme violation of the law and
foundational principles of the Constitution.
