Iran's initial, and ongoing, counterattack looka to me like a foolish attempt to drag in nearly every other country in the region. That did not turn out as planned, it seems to have brought together those countries in opposition to Iran. Morons.

This is a classic problem with a decapitation attack, you get all those now-sorta-independent units out there acting on standing orders or their own initiative.

If things were to go badly, we might see a normally supine Congress make some effort to regain some of the war powers authority they have surrendered over the years. That could (possibly) be a good thing.
I think if we are to have war with Iran, it should go through the Constitutional process.
