'We're going to war'
There has been no such declaration since WW2.
The War Powers Act makes the President into a king, and the king's army is too ignorant to know better.
Treason is defined in the Constitution at Article 3, Section 3, as consisting "only in levying War against (the United States), or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort."
All members of the American military take an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; (and to) bear true faith and allegiance to the same."
When the military is committed to foreign actions without a declaration of war by Congress, as required by Article 1, Section 8, Paragraph 11 of the Constitution, that is a violation of the Constitution, arguably the action of domestic enemies.
When a member of the military participates in an unconstitutional foreign military deployment, s/he violates both the Constitution and his/her oath to "support and defend" it, giving "aid and comfort" to it's "domestic enemies," committing treason by the definition given by the Constitution.

How does the US make the decision to go to war...
...and spend billions of dollars and disrupt (and in some cases destroy) hundreds of thousands of lives?
A behind the scenes peek at how well they think the whole thing out before hand.
