I think many are reading way too much reassurance into Gen Hyten’s remarks. (1) Very few, if any, nuclear launch orders would be clearly “illegal” and (2) Hyten suggested that if he thought it was, he would find a way to execute a “legal version” anywayhttps://twitter.com/jimsciutto/status/932066246459383808 …

You'd be surprised (or maybe not) how some are calling for General Hyten's head for insubordination or treason. I find it somewhat disheartening.
Anyone who advocates that generals (or military) should blindly obey illegal orders from their leaders should get on the last train to Nuremberg... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z08YYG6WJI0 …
