In a previous post, I discussed the actions of Petty Officer Pablo Paredes who decided he was against the war only upon receipt of orders to a ship bound for duty in the Indian Ocean. As the situation currently stands, Paredes has not been apprehended nor has he turned himself in to face the charges against him.
I contributed a companion post to Our Life blog and, interestingly, a comment thread has developed in which Pablo Paredes has joined in. Pablo is attempting to defend his actions. Honestly, he's doing a poor job providing justification for disobeying a lawful order. And not surprisingly, Paredes' argument sounds like it's based entirely on the socialist and communist rhetoric regularly spewed by International A.N.S.W.E.R.
Chris Short is keeping the discussion civil at Our Life. See the comment thread here.
