So, my question would be, is there any scenario you can see where morality overrides duty as a military officer to follow the chain of command?
Obviously, the answer is yes, because I know that if you guys were in the military and the President told you to go out and round up Jews and kill them, you would not obey that. But would that be treason? Yes, that is an extreme example, but it did happen in Germany. So there are cases where your duty as a moral human being overrides your duty as a military officer. The question is, where do we draw the line? In some cases, morality demands that you commit treason. Right? So how does one make that decision? This is not a simple question, no matter how much you guys want it to be. I wouldn't mind seeing Milley put on trial over this, as long as the trial is public and televised. It would be the most interesting trial in years. Because it would delve into questions of morality vs duty, not to mention what was going on in the White House at the time. |
