History

Answer:

President Bush's reasons for going to war proved false

Explanation:

The main reason for the invasion of Iraq was the alleged development and usage of bio-chemical weapons by this Middle Eastern country. Representatives from the UN were sent to investigate it, but it turned out that the allegations were false, and that Iraq doesn't develop or have weapons of that type. The UN representatives though were not let to say what they find out and saw, and mysteriously they all died in very controversial accidents in the coming months. Bush's administration though had already set its sights on Iraq and invading it, so despite the allegations being false they attacked it, invaded it, killed their leader, and got hold onto their natural resources.

what were some of the provisions of the War Powers Act and why did Congress feel the need to create it?
Anni [7]

Answer: The War Powers Act of 1973

The War Powers Resolution, generally known as the War Powers Act, was passed by Congress over President Nixon's veto to increase congressional control over the executive branch in foreign policy matters, specifically in regard to military actions short of formally declared war. Its central provision prohibited the President from engaging in military actions for more than sixty days, unless Congress voted approval.

The key Section 1541(c) reads:

(c) Presidential Executive Power as Commander-in-Chief; Limitation The constitutional powers of the President as Commander-in-Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, are exercised only pursuant to (1) a declaration of war, (2) specific statutory authorization, or (3) a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

Congress passed the War Powers Resolution in the aftermath of the Vietnam War to address these concerns and provide a set of procedures for both the President and Congress to follow in situations where the introduction of U.S. forces abroad could lead to their involvement in armed conflict.
