Another War

Most of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
--Tears for Fears

With our participation in the military intervention in Libya, we have once again violated the Constitutional requirement that only Congress can declare war. Since WWII, the United States has engaged in numerous violent conflicts, all of which have been done outside of Constitutional authority.

In doing so, we trample the freedom of US citizens.

Quite ironically, we also fail to recognize the sovereign right of other countries to govern themselves--as different as their choices might be relative to ours.
