Damn it, show some respect. Whatever one may think of someone's academic perspectives, there are ways and means of expressing disagreement, viz in a collegial and professional manner. They are, for the most part, entirely missing here.
Under international law, men disqualified from military service in a nation have met a principal requirement to become 'unlawful combatants'. If they then take up arms to fend off an attack that's deemed legal by the United Nations, then these men disqualified become 'unlawful combatants'. Half of the men on earth that are disqualified from national defense are Americans. 1/3 of the world's prison population are Americans in US prisons. The standard in the US military is every law or system she named is null and void...she's full of shit.
