Well, Amnesty International thinks so.
But, he's not a civilian though he's a soldier, military doctrine and military justice is handled differently than in civilian court.
I wonder also if his sexuality is being brought into this as well. I'd like to think not ofc, but, we all know about what the Military 'hard men' think or say about gay persons in the services.

That means he was wrong for being right so he had to lose his job.
After all you cannot have officials saying the government looks silly when it is looking silly, they must just say that it only looks silly if you look at it the wrong way which is the right way but not for official purposes as officialy it will always be sensible no matter how silly it is.
