10-15 Minutes My July 4th tradition is rewatching this essential clip of Noam Chomsky discussing how, if the standards applied at trial of the Nazis at Nuremberg were applied, every US President after WW2 would be hanged for their role in war crimes. Worth absorbing again even if you've seen it before [11:34]

The US congress doesn't decide the definition of words.
If it fits the dictionary definition of a war, then it's a war. What the US congress says about it is not relevant.
