US President Joe Biden is updating the US occupation codes. Biden and his staff are preparing to present a new mandate to the US Congress to use military options against Iran by expanding and updating the powers of 2001 and 2002, which set the stage for the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq and the return of the Middle East to a fire.
Joe Biden, whose first act after his appointment to the US Presidency was to bomb Syria, is preparing to return to the USA's 2001 occupation code. In 2001 and 2002, the Bush administration issued an "Authority to Use Military Force" from Congress. Afghanistan was invaded first with the authorization in 2001, and then Iraq was occupied with the authorization in 2002. Now, Biden is taking these powers off the shelf again for Iran.
AUTHORIZATION APPROVAL IS EXPECTED TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE CONGRESS SOON
In the White House backstage, it was noted that Biden and his staff, based on their 2001 and 2002 powers, were preparing to update and expand the powers and submit them to the Congress in the near future. The Biden administration, which also works in lobbying among the senators, wants to activate military options against Iranian elements in Syria and Iran.
HE SAID YES TO THE "OCCUPATIONAL POWERS"
The authorization to use military force in 2001 was presented to the Congress by the Bush administration after the attack on the twin towers in the USA on September 11, 2001 and was approved. Afghanistan was occupied immediately after the approval. A year later, the Bush administration received Congress approval for Iraq in 2002 and Iraq was invaded immediately afterwards. Joe Biden, who was the senator at that time, voted yes to both occupation powers.
WITH THESE POWERS, THE MIDDLE EAST HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED
The region was destroyed with these powers, which were issued in order to "protect the American people against terrorism" and to which so-called new US enemies were added every year. Based on these powers, the USA; He carried out occupation and military operations in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia and Libya.
LEGAL GROUND PREPARED FOR MILITARY OPERATIONS
Another reason for Biden's desire to issue authorization is to silence the criticisms directed to him about Syria at the Congress. Because, in the last days of February, US jets bombarded the al-Hashd al-Shaabi headquarters in eastern Syria, allegedly linked to Iran. However, after this bombardment, the US Congress made heavy criticism to Biden and his staff for this operation, which was carried out without approval. Upon this situation, Biden took authorization studies on the agenda to prepare a legal basis for him.
