Court Hears Arguments in Iraq War Suit
--------------------------------------



In New Jersey, a federal court heard arguments Tuesday in a case seeking
to have the US invasion of Iraq declared unconstitutional. An Iraq war
veteran and two mothers of soldiers filed the case last May. They argue
then-President George W. Bush violated the Constitution by failing to
formally declare war and attacking a country that didn’t threaten the
United States.
