1. As anti Iraq war as I am
I beg to differ.

The decisions that will be made by the SCOTUS will likely endure for decades/even centuries. The Iraq War will likely be over before then.

6. How does anyone filibuster the war at this point?

7. Oppose Alito AND get a handle of the out of control Repukes in Congress
and the executive and halt this insane foreign "policy," aka imperialism.

10. The senate cannot filibuster the war
They can call for troop removal, but they cannot filibuster it.
