Obama Libya War Powers Debate: Obama's Lawyers Are Worse Than Bush's, Glenn Greenwald Says

"Suffering­" isn't the trigger; the "introduct­ion of US Armed Forces" is.

We had air strikes at the beginning, it was scaled back, the UN took over formal control, and WE have been mainly doing unmanned drone strikes...­..

....is THIS what you consider Armed Forces? If you read the War Powers act, I can see precisely where he is getting his argument from, and he certainly has more legal expertise than either of us........

==========­==========­==========­==

For some reason the above comments (mine on top, yours beneath) got scrubbed.  

Of course "air strikes" are "armed forces". 

Perhaps I should have said "any military action", but would you then try to parse it that if it was the CIA running the operation then it doesn't apply because CIA isn't a part of the US military?

If air strikes alone aren't an act of war, then what the heII was Pearl Harbor?
