Resolution Number ANA07.37

No Military Action Against Iran

WHEREAS, a majority of Americans now realize that President George W. Bush’s war against Iraq was a disastrous mistake; and

WHEREAS, the armed forces of the United States are bogged down and are stretched nearly to the breaking point and Americans now realize that robust diplomacy rather than military force is needed to resolve disputes with countries like Iran; and

WHEREAS, as President Bush and members of his administration are beating the drums of war against Iran and appear to be preparing the American people for a new military engagement;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the California Democratic Party strongly reaffirms its opposition to any attack against Iran and asserts that any such action without the full assent of Congress would be illegal and unconstitutional.
