    Samson:  US Senate delays revocation of Iraq war authorization
    25th June, 2021
    The US Senate postponed the vote to repeal the war authorization in Iraq until next July; The Democratic leaders agreed to the request of some Republicans to postpone the vote pending secret briefings with members of the US administration to see any possible repercussions of canceling the mandate on US national security.
    The skeptical lawmakers wrote a letter to the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Bob Menendez, in which they said, "We must assess conditions on the ground in depth and consider the implications of repealing the 2002 war authorization for our friends," warning of any possible response by enemies of the United States. “Like ISIS and the Iranian-backed factions” due to the revocation of the mandate.
    Republicans, most notably Senators Mitt Romney and Marco Rubio, stated that it is also necessary to consider "the potential political and judicial ramifications of easing the US presence in the region and the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan."
    Menendez, the chair of the committee that was supposed to approve revoking the mandate this week, pledged not to put it to a vote before providing a confidential briefing session for the skeptics, and they also demanded that U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and State Department Anthony Blinken give their testimony publicly before the committee to explain the implications of revoking the mandate, in addition to: Hold closed-door meetings with State and Defense officials and the Director of the Office of National Intelligence.
    While Menendez indicated the White House's support for canceling the mandate approved by Congress in 2002, he said at the same time that he agreed to the Republicans' request for a postponement because he did not want the repeal vote to be a partisan vote, stressing the importance of the parties agreeing on an important issue from this. Type.
    Postponing the vote on this project is not a sign of declining support for it. The Republicans opposed to it have long ago expressed their skepticism in light of their calls for another appropriate mandate to replace the aforementioned mandate, to confront the current threats to the United States.
    The White House has expressed its openness to this proposal at a time when Democrats have indicated that the other authorization passed by Congress in 2001 to allow military operations in Afghanistan to confront terrorist groups is still in effect, and the White House can use it if necessary.
    In addition, the US president has powers under Article Two of the Constitution, according to which he can launch military strikes in the event of a direct threat to the national security of the United States. Current President Joe Biden used this clause when launching military strikes on Iranian sites in Syria, while former President Donald Trump relied on authorizing the war in Iraq to launch a raid that led to the assassination of Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad.
    Last week, the House of Representatives approved the bill to repeal the war authorization in Iraq with a majority of 268 deputies and 161 opposition to it. The bill was sent to the Senate, which must approve it, before officially repealing it. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has vowed to settle the matter this year, saying, "The Iraq war ended more than a decade ago, and that mandate passed in 2002 no longer matters in 2021."
    In light of the fear of some that canceling the mandate will negatively affect relations with Iraq, Schumer stressed that the United States will not abandon the relationship it has with the country and its people through this cancellation, noting that the reason for taking such a decision is due to the need to “deter future presidents from seeking refuge.” to judicial arguments to justify their military adventures,” he said.
    The project has the support of a number of Republicans; Most notably, Senator Todd Young, who stressed that “repealing the war authorization would send a clear diplomatic message that the United States is no longer an enemy of Iraq; Rather, he is a partner.”
    The Congress approved the authorization of the war in Iraq in 2002 to authorize the use of military force against Saddam Hussein's regime. He also approved the 2001 authorization immediately after the September attacks, which allowed then US President George W. Bush to launch military operations in Afghanistan to counter terrorist groups, and Congress does not intend to cancel the 2001 authorization anytime soon.
    In addition to the mandates in 2001 and 2002, Congress also passed in 1991 a different authorization that allowed then-President George Bush Sr. to use military force in Iraq following the invasion of Kuwait, and Congress intends to revoke this authorization in the same vote to repeal the 2002 authorization.  LINK
