Top 6 Reasons Not to Give Biden Any New AUMF
By David Swanson
https://davidswanson.org/top-6-reasons-not-to-give-biden-any-new-aumf
Feel free to find five of these reasons crazy. Any one of them should be
sufficient alone.
1. War is illegal. While all wars are illegal under the Kellogg-Briand
Pact, most people ignore that fact. Yet, many fewer ignore the fact that
virtually all wars are illegal under the UN Charter. President Biden defended
his recent missiles into Syria with a ridiculous claim of self-defense,
explicitly because there is a self-defense loophole in the UN Charter. The U.S.
sought UN authorization for the 2003 attack on Iraq (but didn’t get it) not as
a courtesy to the dispensable nations of the world, but because that’s the
legal requirement, even if ignoring the existence of the Kellogg-Briand Pact
(KBP). There is no way for Congress to word an Authorization for the Use of
Military Force (AUMF) to make the crime of war into something legal. There is
no way for Congress to finesse it by claiming that some level of force isn’t
actually a “war.” The UN Charter bans force and even the threat of force, and
requires the use of only peaceful means — as does the KBP. Congress has no
special dispensation to commit crimes.
2. Stipulating for the sake of argument that war is legal, an AUMF would
still be illegal. The U.S. Constitution gives Congress the exclusive power to
declare war, and no power to authorize an executive to declare war. Stipulating
for the sake of argument that the War Powers Resolution is Constitutional, its
requirement that Congress specifically authorize any war or hostilities cannot
be met by declaring that a general authorization of the executive to authorize
whatever wars or hostilities he or she sees fit simply is a specific
authorization. It isn’t.
3. You do not end wars by authorizing wars or by authorizing someone else
to authorize wars. The 2001 AUMF

stated: “That the President is authorized to use all necessary and
appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he
determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that
occurred on September 11, 2001,or harbored such organizations or persons, in
order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United
States by such nations, organizations or persons.” The 2002 AUMF

said: “The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United
States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to — (1)
defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat
posed by Iraq; and (2) enforce all relevant United Nations Security Council
resolutions regarding Iraq.” These laws are nonsense, not just because they are
unconstitutional (see #2 above) but also because the second one’s dishonest
whereas clauses connecting Iraq to 9-11 render it unnecessary under the first
one. Yet, that second one was necessary politically in the United States. A new
AUMF was also necessary for Syria 2013 and Iran 2015, which is why those wars
did not happen on an Iraqlike scale. That another declaration or AUMF was not
necessary for numerous other wars, including the war on Libya, including the
smaller scale and proxy war on Syria, is a political fact more than a legal
one. We are completely capable of making it necessary for Biden to obtain a new
pseudo-declaration of war for any new war, and of denying it to him. But
handing him a new AUMF now and expecting him to put all the missiles away and
behave like a grownup would be tying one hand behind our backs as advocates for
peace.
4. If Congress cannot be compelled to repeal existing AUMFs without
creating a new one, we’re better off keeping the old ones. The old ones have
added a layer of legalisticishness to dozens of wars and military actions, but
not actually been relied upon by Bush or Obama or Trump, each of whom has
argued, absurdly, that his actions were (a) in compliance with the UN Charter,
(b) in compliance with the War Powers Resolution, and (c) authorized by
nonexistent presidential war powers imagined into the U.S. Constitution. At
some point Congress’s excuses for passing the buck fade into ridiculousness.
There is still on the books from 1957 an authorization to combat international
communism in the Middle East, but nobody mentions it. I’d love to get rid of
all such relics, and for that matter half the Constitution, but if the Geneva
Conventions and the Kellogg-Briand Pact can be memory-holed, so can these
outrageous Cheney-droppings. On the other hand, if you create a new one, it
will be used, and it will be abused beyond whatever it literally states.
5. Anyone who’d seen the damage done by recent wars would not authorize
another goddamned thing. Since 2001, the United States has been systematically
destroying

a region of the globe, bombing Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Libya, Somalia,
Yemen, and Syria, not to mention the Philippines and other countries scattered
around the world. The United States has “special forces” operating in dozens of
countries. The people killed by the post-9-11 wars is likely around 6 million.
Many times that have been injured, many times that indirectly killed or
injured, many times that made homeless, and many times that traumatized. A huge
percentage of the victims have been little children. Terrorist organizations
and refugee crises have been generated at an amazing pace. This death and
destruction is a drop in the bucket compared to the lost opportunities to save
people from starvation and illness and climate-disasters. The financial cost of
over $1 trillion each and every year for U.S. militarism has been and is a
trade-off. It could have done and could do a world of good.
6. What’s needed is something else entirely. What’s actually needed is to
compel an end to each war, and to weapons sales, and to bases. The U.S.
Congress actually acted to (redundantly but apparently necessarily) forbid war
on Yemen and on Iran when Trump was in the White House. Both actions were
vetoed. Both vetoes were not overridden. Now Biden has committed to sort of
kind of partially ending U.S. participation (except in certain ways) in the war
on Yemen, and Congress has gone mute. What’s actually needed is for Congress to
forbid any participation in the war on Yemen and make Biden sign it, and then
the same on Afghanistan, and then the same on Somalia, etc., or do several at
once, but do them, and make Biden sign or veto them. What’s needed is for
Congress to forbid murdering people around the globe with missiles, whether or
not from drones. What’s needed is for Congress to move the money from military
spending to human and environmental crises. What’s needed is for Congress to
end U.S. weapons sales currently going to 48 of the 50

the foreign bases. What’s needed is for Congress to end deadly and illegal
sanctions on populations around the world.
Otherwise, what was the point of getting a new Congress and president? To
provide less pandemic aid than Trump did? To tease suffering people with a
minimum wage law and do a little dance about it? If Congress cannot forbid even
the wars it pretended to want to forbid when it had vetoes it could count on,
what is the purpose of Congress?
