When it turns out some followed illegal orders, higher ups in the military will suddenly remember following illegal orders is a no-no for the drone operators.

And the bus shall come.

What about those who issued illegal orders though? No bus for them?
I guess applying the Rules of War when no war has been declared, needs questioning too?
