Well, that's not how the rule of law works.

Better to go to court martial and get a ruling that Lt. Col. West acted appropriately in handling an illegal combatant that had no rights under the Rules of War to POW status or POW rights.

The JAG must be ruled wrong lest this happens again and lest other officers believe that it is their legal duty to handle terrorists with kid gloves.

Large fonts do not make your argument more valid.

The executive branch does not run the judicial branch; they are co-equal branches of government.

TELL THAT DIRTBAG J.A.G. TO DROP ALL THE GODDAMN CHARGES NOW!

And the JAG would be absolutely right to refuse to do so, and such attempted interference in the functioning of the judiciary would be impeachable.
