He had the moral courage to stand up for what he believed.

...right up to the moment when he changed his plea to guilty and testified, under oath, that his orders were legal and that he had known they were legal when he disobeyed them.

He did what his lawyer told him to do. And his lawyer knew the fix was in when the judge ruled that an order is lawful even if it doesn’t meet the requirements of the law. (IOW, it’s lawful even when it’s not in compliance with the law....)

From that point on, nothing anybody did mattered. The takeover of the military was complete. And we’re seeing the natural consequences now, as we watch the patriots being either purged or killed.

I have to tell you, the domestic enemies are the ones that hurt the worst. If Lakin had been captured by Al Qaeda and had gone on tape saying he was wrong and was being treated well, etc..... we would all have known what was going on. In this case it was traitors within our own MILITARY that broke him down by the reality of his futile situation.

I’m not going to stick around to talk about this. I see the usual apologists have appeared like they always do when Orly or Lakin come up, and I know from experience that I can’t stomach the hissing from the pit. I rest confidently in this: one Day every person will bow to the truth and every person’s work will be seen for what it is. I eagerly await that Day. Until then, each person will continue to do and be what they are, until the day that is revealed to them and all the rest of us.

Carry on.
