I had a pretty good idea what that part meant... What is the "convening authority"? Who does this consist of?

Aiding the enemy? What enemy, the truth? So now the truth is the enemy. Exposing the murder of innocent civilians with machine gun fire is aiding the enemy? Who exposed the Marines who peeing on corpses? Is that aiding the enemy also? This country is nothing it proposes to be any longer. Everything is tightly controlled to the point of civil liberties being basically non existent. When there is a crumb thrown to the masses in the guise of some court decision or government action it is nothing more than a show so the greedy elite and military complex can point to it and say, "Look, this is America and we are upholding freedom." OWS is one thing but when are people going to really stand up against the absolute destruction of what is considered justice and law in our precious nation?
