"Locked and loaded?

President Trump's threat against Iran should be understood. The United States has no security agreement requiring us to defend Saudi Arabia. Any military action by the U.S. requires Congressional authorization."

"Pres. Trump unilaterally withdrew from Iran Nuclear Agreement & has escalated tensions w/ Iran ever since. Iran is a bad actor in many ways, but edging into military confrontation could lead to the nightmare scenario we know well from our never ending wars in Iraq & Afghanistan."
