Top general says he would resist "illegal" nuke order from Trump

Yea that is totally why.

 

A nuclear attack that isn’t in retaliation to a nuclear attack or used to preempt an imminent one is murder.

 

So pray tell, what besides retaliation to a nuclear strike or to preempt one could justify a nuclear strike?

 

It's 2017, tRUmp is the RUssia operated POTUS.......try to stay current and ignore dog whistles, it's reality chuck.

 

His tweets are intemperate. His actions have not proved to be. Obama caused much death and disorder in the Middle East.
Did you worry about him? Of course you didn't.

 

More than Bush (both of them) ?...

When I see the President - the supposed representative of the free world - fraternize with Duerte, Jinping and Putin, it leave a bad taste.

If Obama had done that, Cons would protest by self-immolation before the congress....
.

 

You have no idea what Trump has done 'at every turn'. Neither do I. Everything he has done is not known to the general public.

The most you could rightfully say is you believe everything Trump has done so far is legal and everything you are aware of that he has done appears to be legal...in your opinion.

 

Obama incinerated a Colorado teenager with a drone strike, no trial, no charges, he just happened to be the son of another American Obama incinerated in a seperate drone strike, again, without charges, trial or conviction.

Were the orders Obama issued in these drone strikes illegal?

Was this murder?

 

No. Not more than both of them.
But enough to cause a refugee crisis that will stay with Europe for decades to come due to his backing of Syrian "rebels" (terrorists)
and the illegal coup of Khaddafi. Not to mention the rise of ISIS and the fake "Arab spring" that consolidated the power of the theorcrats in Iran when he failed to deliver support for a popular uprising there, as promised (while backing the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt).

His negative impact on the region will fill many books if they haven't already done so.

So your "bad taste" is rationalization for thinking Trump will go insane and launch a preemptive nuclear strike?
I didn't feel that way when Obama kissed up to Castro or Mohammad Morsi.

Obama DID do that and more...including kissing up to Vlad Putin and the Chinese.

 

Not Obama's fault.

Would it have been better for US to engage in a new war in the Middle East?

Obama has nothing to do with the Arab Spring.

And if the Middle East is destabilized today, it's because of the Iraq invasion.

But all that will work out since the President knows more about geopolitics than the military.

 

Not Obama's fault? Wow!
You'd better do some checking and see how the US armed and supported Syrian rebels (again, terrorists). It's not exactly a secret. http://www.newsweek.com/us-military-battles-syria-rebels-supported-cia-backed-turkey-656617
What do you suppose we were doing in Benghazi (before terrorists attacked us there)?

Again, check the record. https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2015/10/middle-east-egypt-us-policy/409537/
You seem to be the only person who does not know...or will not admit knowing.

A pretty authoritative statement coming from someone who seems to know nothing about the situation. Excuse me if I laugh to myself about your lack of knowledge combined with completely mistaken self confidence.

I can guarantee Trump will not front for the Muslim Brotherhood nor will he arm and finance terrorists in the region. Wake up.

 

And you think President Trump has a red button on his iphone ??

 

The UCMJ gives / gave us military people to question an illegal and it says that we did not have to comply with an illegal order. If we were ordered to commit genocide we had the right to challenge such as order.

We would not have had the I was just following orders defense.

 

Trump is must likely a criminal but treason is not in the fame in,less we can prove that he ordered secrets to be turned over to Russia/Putin.

 

No it's an app. LOL

 

The Iraq war did contribute to 99% of the instability in the Middle East. The Palitinian crises was there since 1948, or was it 048 BC

 

Well that was a mental mistake

 

What secrets are those ? The DNC rigged the nomination?

 

On Pearl Harbor, they actually intercepted Japanese telegrams and translated them several days before the attack. Roosevelt committed a war crime in withholding this information and letting the Japanese attack. Because without such an attack, Roosevelt didn't think he'd be able to get the votes for war.

Yep, swell guy.

 

The General did not presume he would get any such illegal order. The reporter was whom made the presumption.

We learned fairly early in training we do not obey unlawful orders. Taught to the lowest ranking soldier.

 

Time to fire that general given he has decided that HE is Commander In Chief, decided to be a politician even suggesting our president might try to do something "illegal" with nuclear weapons publicly, and obviously believing he is the final authority over nuclear missiles for which if he thought the President gave an "illegal" order NOT to launch nuclear missiles he - as the self-declared Commander In Chief - would launch them anyway. He is FAR to dangerous to have ANY authority over nuclear weapons.

 

Book explains it includes proof

 

Is he fired yet?

The sonovabitch needs to know he wasn't voted in.

Exicute him.

 

Got an Alaska-sized tinfoil hat?
