this one’s also good xDWar is peace
Fun fact: nazi Germany went to war in the name of peace!
Sincerely, who gives a fuck about the legality of it? Would these people be happy if Congress had voted for it before they bombed brown people in the Middle East for the umpteenth time?
I would be less pissed off if a governing body made the decision instead of a wanna be dictator.
Um… why?
Because multiple people deciding as a group means there were opportunities to object and at least the stupidity isn’t a single person’s whim.
To be very clear, less pissed off doesn’t mean not pissed off.
And because the power quite literally belongs to that group.

I mean, if you consider that there is a legal way to start a war, that’s already a problem.
I mean a war being legal doesnt make it moral, but, for the USA, the legal way was by an act of congress.
The Hague convention III of 1907 formalized an international process (thats really just you have to declare war, both to the opposing forces and to all neutral parties in the area) that was basically what people had been doing for centuries.
