Illegal? Laws? Who cares when it comes to war! Don't get me wrong I hate war, but Americans are so obsessed with all their laws, patents, intellectual property, they just take for granted these things are just.
Take the ingenius law that says Medical Helicopters can't carey weapons (then they get used for target practice during the Vietnam war because the gurilas knew they couldn't shoot back.)
My point is you should always question laws...and that not all laws are just (some aren't even the least bit logical)
