Now, was this a Trump personal decision on attacking Iran on behalf of the Israel or is the action constitutionally backed by the US Congress? This something to look into.
Trump is an emperor. Republicans control the Congress making him to command so much powers. He is not accountable to any institution not even the courts.
trump is just one man. when you realise he has a cabinet and pentagon full of advisers. he delegates tasks to those that know best.
.. iran needed to be handled and the US DoD done its job. one quick strike across irans sensitive spots.
it didnt require months of perpetual pokes and jabs.. just one surgical strategy in one night to teach iran a big lesson.. that iran wont get to have nukes any time soon
