- Somewhere out there the gods of law are laughing their heads off.
Soon, in a combat theater near you, the 82nd Airborne will be dropped into combat against terrorists. Additional aircraft will drop into combat the 666th Combat Defense Attorney Brigade (the legendary C-DABS). As each trooper in the 82nd lines up a shot at a terrorist aiming at him, one set of the 666th CDAB attorneys will file a motion with the Combat Field Judge asserting that the trooper is about to violate the rights of the jihadist at whom he is aiming. The trooper’s counsel will point out the imminent danger faced by his client and will assert “self defense” - meanwhile, the jihadist is blazing away at the trooper, ignoring the temporary injunction papers being waved at him by the Combat Marshal.
Other members of the terrorist group are gunning down members of the 666th Brigade as they try to present their business cards and establish an attorney-client relationship. Eventually the terrorists run out of ammunition only to discover that their AK-47s have not come close to being able to damage the American military as will the legal system about to invoked on their behalf by American law.
CDAB deaths will always be high, but given the ever-increasing number of American law schools cranking out an endless stream of unnecessary attorneys looking for work, the losses will be quickly replaced.
Take it from me, an Israeli mother, with friends whose husbands and children have been in combat duty in the IDF over the last 20 years, that the above scenario (barring the disposable lawyers) is not a joke. There have been numerous situations where IDF personnel have died or been injured because of fears of repercussions and confusion in abiding by the IDF's absurd code of ethics, compiled and frozen into law by local leftwing liberal professor Asaf Kasher, who I would like to have parachuted into Lebanon a month or 2 ago.
