I think that Congress can finally construct the strategy that has been missing from everything we've been doing in the region.

But imposing sanctions and continuing to impose them on Iran's malign behavior in the region, which is permissible, is the right way to go.

I think Congress is AWOL and Congress should be doing this, and the 2001 AUMF that most of us who are here voted for it seems to me doesn't apply to this situation at all.
