Illegal war, I do believe that the Congress voted to support the Iraqi mess, including Hillary. Don’t even try the “Bush lied” gambit because history will vindicate his decision based on the Intelligence that he assessed. BTW, The Congress had access to the same intell and went along with the invasion.

Congress cannot vote a war without an actual Declaration of War, further since the US government is a signatory to the treaty known as the UN Charter, which prohibits invading another member nation, the war against Iraq is illegal.

As far as I can remember, no one is compelled to join the military. The Lt. raised his hand as a volunteer and signed up for the term of service. The right to choose which lawful orders to obey in the military not one of the choices afforded a service-member.
Recap:
1. War voted on by Congress.
2. Issued a lawful order by those appointed over him.
3. Missed a military movement.
The Lt. will be convicted and will spend time in the US Disciplinary Barracks at Ft. Leavenworth KS.

One must obey only lawful orders.
