Does the US bombing of Iran facilities enable the US to control Israels actions?

2. Was it self defence?

Under the UN Charter, there are two ways in which a state can lawfully use force against another state:

the UN Security Council authorises force in exceptional circumstances to restore or maintain international peace and security under Chapter 7

the right of self defence when a state is attacked by another, as outlined in Article 51.

On the first point, there was no UN Security Council authorisation for either Israel or the US to launch an attack on Iran to maintain international peace and security. The security council has long been concerned about Iran’s nuclear program and adopted a series of resolutions related to it. However, none of those resolutions authorised the use of military force.

With regard to self defence, this right is activated if there is an armed attack against a nation. And there’s no evidence of any recent Iranian attacks on the US.

Congress can also shut off funding of a military action. Don’t think MAGA Mike and Thune are on board.

Also, MTG and several others are saying this is not putting America first. MTG actually said it was a “bait and switch” operation.

Is he now a war criminal on top of everything else?
