Senate defeats Rand Paul amendment clarifying war powers in NATO resolution

Another Blow To U.S. Sovereignty and The Dying U.S. Constitution

Senators defeated the amendment in a 10-87 vote, with only Republicans voting in favor of revision.

GOP Sens. Mike Braun (Ind.), Ted Cruz (Texas), Steve Daines (Mont.), Josh Hawley (Mo.), Ron Johnson (Wis.), James Lankford (Okla.), Mike Lee (Utah), Cynthia Lummis (Wyo.) and Roger Marshall (Kansas) joined Paul in supporting the amendment.

The U.S. Constitution stipulates that Congress holds the power to declare war.

If a NATO member is to respond to an attack, then NATO members come together to decide what to do.

In principle, if a NATO member were attacked, is it likely that the United States would respond by going to war? Yes, because if it did not do so then Article 5 would be deemed ineffective — and the credibility of collective defense would unravel.

Concerns among politicians that such international agreements could compel the U.S. to war or otherwise infringe on the country’s sovereignty aren’t new. Similar opinions were aired around the creation of the League of Nations. Wisely the U.S. Senators refused to cede U.S. sovereignty rejected Wilson's globalist League of Nations.

Article 5 of the NATO treaty has only been invoked once: when the U.S. was allegedly attacked on Sept. 11, 2001.

Well, some Americans believe the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks were an “inside job, a “false flag” designed to get the U.S. and NATO embroiled in a war in the Middle East. This war was envisioned by American war mongers like Bill Krystal and other neocons in the document “The Project For A New American Century”. See link near the end.

Overextending and Unbalancing Russia

“The Project For A New American Century” was followed by a Rand Corporation policy document that advocated a U.S. conflict with Russia via Ukraine.

The strategic plan of the United States against Russia was elaborated in 2019 by the Rand Corporation (the manifesto, Rand Corp: how to bring down Russia, May 21, 2019). The Rand Corporation, headquartered in Washington, DC, is “a global research organization developing solutions to policy challenges”: it has an army of 1,800 researchers and other specialists recruited from 50 countries, speaking 75 languages, spread across offices and other locations in North America, Europe, Australia, and the Persian Gulf. Rand’s U.S. personnel live and work in more than 25 countries.
