That was the last time that Congress approved a declaration of war. Every "war" we have entered since then has been an illegal invasion of a sovereign nation. Whether or not you like or dislike the politics of the nations that we have invaded. We had no legal right to do so. That is why US troops were kicked out of Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq. The US hasn't won a "war" since the invasion of Berlin. The military has been kicked out of every country since.
No disrespect to the men and women of the US military. They were simply following orders thereby doing their job. It's the US government that should be blamed for risking the lives of these brave men and women by asking them to illegally invade other sovereign nations with no declaration of war.
It makes me proud of the individual men and women who chose to risk their lives but ashamed of our money and resource-grubbing government that invades other countries just to take their natural resources where big businesses like Haliburton make a few billion off the backs of our young men and women and our taxpayers.
Americans, how does knowing that make YOU feel?
