Disagree

No, Congress should approve all military conflicts

While the Republican party does value the role of Congress in the decision-making process, they have historically been more supportive of a strong executive branch when it comes to national security and military matters. This can be seen in the actions of Republican presidents like George W. Bush and Donald Trump, who both took military actions without explicit Congressional approval (e.g., the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan and the 2020 killing of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani).
