Original Note:
Trump’s strike on Iran was illegal. It breached the UN Charter (Art. 2[4]), which prohibits force without self-defense or UN approval, the U.S. Constitution (Art. I, Sec. 8), which gives Congress war powers, and the War Powers Act, limiting unilateral military action. https://www.un.org/en/about-us/un-charter/full-text
