Not necessarily, but we are trying to achieve world peace these days (at 
least according to the UN).

It's true that $$ and the War Powers Act (to move the wheels) are standard 
in cases of war.  The question is whether a formal war is required in this 
instance.  It seems retro in light of post WWII policies.  Is this going to 
be a reversal?
