Not an utterly pointless fight
Webb's shouldn't have been concerned about hurting Jr's feelings. His concern was for his child and his disdain for an idiot war (chief) is valid and founded.

Warfare by midlevel legal memos
The cure for justifying torture in this war is to start prosecuting all the perpetrators--all the way from the GIs through the lieutenants, captains, majors, colonels, generals to the secretaries, cabinet members, chiefs of staff, vice and president--as war criminals.
