Allow me to bring up the Nuremburg Trials.
When an order or action seems to be in direct contradiction to certain laws, universal human rights, or the damn constitution, then this excuse does NOT work/apply.
Nazi officers who said "they were just following orders" were not spared. Orders make sense when they are against an enemy and during times of war.
They do not make sense when it's an internal conspiracy.
I don't want mutiny. I want discipline. I want my army's top brass to reflect the amazingly brave sacrifices of those on the frontline. I want the existing corps commanders and other powerful figures to have the moral courage to push traitors out. Simple.
Just as somebody on the frontline sacrifices differently, CCC needs to sacrifice differently --- the country over naukri and command chain. Conscientious objection
I agree.
Though, the correct vernacular might be that IK failed to STOP the forced extension.
