I remember in high school our government teacher telling us that "only Congress can declare war". So what are all these clandestine operations going on that the general public has little or no knowledge of or that are buried in the back of the newspapers? Is it the scale of the operation because it sure sounds like war to me? That reminds me of another thing that same instructor used to say "It's only a democracy a very brief moment in time ... when you vote." Apparently, once they're in power they have more control than I thought the Constitution had given them. :/
