It's General Cleveland's decision that's being second-guessed here, not mine, right? If you can't explain it to me because my “eyes are closed,” how would you explain to the SOCCENT that he is getting innocent people killed by enforcing the Uniform Code of Military Justice?
“... how would you explain to the SOCCENT that he is getting innocent people killed by enforcing the Uniform Code of Military Justice?”
In a PC corruppted culture ALL aspects of life including those that serve Law and Order serve PC FIRST. By definition nothing may be done until it is scrutinazed thru the lense of PC. Conversely (and here’s where it pertains to your question)in the same PC corruppted culture many things are done to SOLEY TO SATISFY PC. And THAT will result in ultimate failure in the field and of the mission.
If you don’t believe this stay tuned. A military crash that has been two generations in the making is not long off.
