Biden criticized Trump after the assassination of Soleimani 4 years ago, for the exact same thing.

"Donald Trump does not have the authority to take us into a war with Iran without Congressional approval. A president should never take this nation to war without the informed consent of the American people." -Joe Biden 1/6/2020

This is the US explicitly siding with Israel re: the genocide in Gaza, it's a major escalation.

Biden's a hypocrite, this is nothing new. He had both houses under control and still failed to legislate federal protections for trans people.
