Reply #4: illustrating yet again why the notion of "refusing unlawaful orders" is bogus [View All]

[0rganism]

If military personnel cannot address the legality of said orders in the context of a court martial defense, there is no reason to expect them to question the legality of orders during any other operation. Some might say this is as it should be, and perhaps they're right, but let's just drop any pretense to the contrary. Orders are orders, and you carry them out or you go to jail. Period, end of discussion, game over.
