Agree

Yes, but only with permission from the country in question

Agree

No, only to gather intelligence, not to kill suspected terrorists

Disagree

No, the military has no right to do so without a Congressional declaration of war

While Ford was a strong believer in the separation of powers and the importance of Congressional approval for military actions, he also demonstrated a willingness to take unilateral action when he believed it was necessary for national security, as evidenced by his decision to evacuate Saigon without Congressional approval.
