I think it makes it sound bad when I say their OWN laws, OWN system, etc, etc.

I agree that the military, as an extension of the government should be answerable to the citizens, but we're talking about a government that does whatever the hell it wants, and the military as an extension of that opting to protect itself rather than being honest and forthright with things like this.

Its as much ridiculous as it is a consequence of 30+ years of stupid governing.
