Original Note:
This strike was legal under the War Powers Act of 1973, which gives the President limited authority to conduct military strikes without a former declaration of war. No court has declared that the War Powers Act is unconstitutional. https://www.nixonlibrary.gov/news/war-powers-resolution-1973 https://m.economictimes.com/news/international/global-trends/israel-iran-war-can-trump-bomb-iran-without-asking-capitol-hill-says-no-invokes-war-powers-act/articleshow/121978403.cms
