Abstract

Since this op-ed was written, the US-Iran conflict. escalated by President Trump's assassination of Qassim Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, appears to have deescalated, especially since Iran has admitted accidentally shooting down the Ukrainian passenger jet. But the ominous threat of a US-Iran war persists; and it is still incumbent upon Congress to make sure that whatever response Trump might make to alleged Iranian provocations is strictly limited within the parameters of the National Emergencies Act and the War Powers Act, and does not contribute to igniting a Middle East proxy war. Or worse.
