/r/MideastPeace
A forum for discussing the Palestinian/Israeli peace process to learn what each side thinks and why; and for broader news about peace all over the Middle East.
This forum is heavily moderated by people who support both the Israeli and Palestinian positions. The goal is to have an honest and hate-free environment to discuss problems, solutions, and to try to bring people together in a common understanding.
Guidelines:
Be polite - Disagreements are fine ... but we want to keep this discussion civil
Be open minded - We are here to learn from one another and foster understanding. Try to see where the other person is coming from even if you don't agree with them.
Keep your submissions on topic
New Posting Guidelines
What is good: Anything that fosters discussion and can help people to see a different perspective.
What is bad: Clearly one-sided stories that are more about accusations rather than openness and understanding. Think about it this way ... if your article serves to primarily make one group or another look bad ... it will be removed.
Middle ground: If you feel that you can add to the discussion with an article that fits the "bad" category; submit it as text with an explanation and the link in your description.

Ia American aid to Israel against the law?
Military aid to Israel is illegal under American law. Israel's human rights violations disqualifies Israel from receiving military aid under the Leahy law and Israel's having nuclear weapons while refusing to allow inspections or sign the nuclear nonproliferation treaty makes aid to Israel illegal under the Symington amendment.

The Legal Evolution of the War on Terror: AUMFs, Article II War Powers, and America’s Expanding Conflicts, Explained

In 2001, Congress started a new chapter in US history by passing the 2001 Authorization For Use of Military Force. This allowed America to go after individuals and groups associated with 9/11. Since then, Congress has authorized a war in Iraq and Executive Branch lawyers created a new interpretation of the law allowing the president to conduct limited strikes anywhere in the world without congressional approval. Here’s how we got to where we are on the legal front of the War on terror, and how the laws may evolve as we begin to focus on bombing Iranian Proxies.
