The so-called ‘eligibility’ question is so irrelevant, at this remove ... The time to address it expired with the election. From then on, the issue resided solely with the Congress and they refused to even take it up.
Lawless service members immolating themselves so uselessly ( a la Lakin and this one ) while they may inspire SOME to admiration, are hardly acting in the best interests of ANYONE — themselves, their families, their Services, their Country.
In the end, these individuals may garner a lot of attention and emotional or sentimental admiration, but their actions do NOTHING to further any worthwhile cause.
Another responder used the term ‘attention whore’. I’d second that sentiment.
There is no ‘win’ for anybody in prolonging this ‘eligibility’ nonsense. The time to act was BEFORE Imam Hussein was elected. Now, our only recourse, barring a sudden eruption of ‘due diligence’ on the part of a ‘do-nothing helpful’ Congress, is to assure the Imam doesn’t get yet another term.

the military oath is very important to them. This is why they take it for the constitution instead of any specifi leader or office. I doubt you will find any other military with this unique oath to a document rather than a person or office.
