\u00a0President Donald Trump\u2019s top national security aidesurged U.S. lawmakers reviewing congressional war authorization to avoid imposing geographic or time limits on the military\u2019s campaign against Islamic State and other militant groups.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWar is fundamentally unpredictable,\u201d Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis told a Senate hearing about a potential new authorization for the use of military force, or AUMF, Congress\u2019 most significant step in years toward taking back control of its constitutional right to authorize war.<\/p>\n

Mattis and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson both said existing authorizations should not be repealed until new ones are in place, and stressed that they believe current AUMFs provide sufficient legal authority for ongoing military action.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 2001 AUMF provides statutory authority for ongoing U.S. military operations against al-Qaeda; the Taliban; and associated forces, including against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, or ISIS,\u201d Tillerson said in his opening statement.<\/p>\n

Republican and Democratic members of Congress have been arguing for years that Congress ceded too much authority over the deployment of U.S. forces to the White House after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. They are also divided over how much control they should exert over the Pentagon. Repeated efforts to write and pass a new AUMF have failed.<\/p>\n

Under the Constitution, Congress, not the president, has the right to declare war.<\/p>\n

Concerns intensified this month after four U.S. soldiers were killed in Niger and previously over Trump\u2019s talk about dealing with North Korea and an April attack on an airfield in Syria.<\/p>\n

Republican Senator Bob Corker, chairman of the foreign relations committee, told the hearing the ambush in Niger shows that U.S. forces \u201ccan find themselves in combat at any moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018GLOBAL, ENDLESS, SHADOW WAR\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

Congress has not passed an AUMF since the 2002 measure authorizing the Iraq War. But the legal justification for most military action for the past 16 years is the older authorization passed days after the Sept. 11 attacks, for the campaign against al Qaeda and affiliates.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Backers of a new AUMF say the 2001 authorization has let presidents wage war wherever they like, without spelling out any strategy for Congress, or the public. For example, Islamic State did not exist when the 2001 AUMF was passed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do not think the American people want the United States conducting a global, endless \u2018Shadow War,\u2019 under-the-radar, covert and beyond scrutiny,\u201d said Senator Ben Cardin, the top Democrat on the foreign relations panel.<\/p>\n

Mattis told the hearing he was not averse to a new authorization.<\/strong><\/div>\n

\u201cAny new congressional expression of unity, whether or not an AUMF, would present a strong statement to the world of America\u2019s determination,\u201d he said in his opening statement.<\/p>\n

But he said imposing limits would help America\u2019s adversaries.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are more likely to end this fight sooner if we don\u2019t tell our adversary the day we intend to stop fighting,\u201d Mattis said.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s fellow Republicans control majorities in both the Senate and House of Representatives but there are deep divisions over any possible new authorization within the party, as well as between Republicans and Democrats.<\/p>\n

Many more hawkish Republicans do not want a measure exerting too much control over the Pentagon and say military commanders should decide how to fight America\u2019s enemies.<\/p>\n

And some Democrats say they want an AUMF that limits why, where and for how long U.S. forces can be sent to fight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
