In Re Blow Holes

From my Jane's email updates:

The US Supreme Court has agreed to reopen a legal battle over rulings that restrict the US Navy's (USN's) use of high-frequency sonar transmissions for training exercises. The Supreme Court decided on 23 June to review the decision of the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold a lower court's restriction on sonar use, intended to protect marine mammals[.]


I mentioned this issue before, here.

God help us all, our Supreme Court gets to rule on national defense issues. Again.

I'm used to our enemies trying to defeat us. I just can't get used to Americans doing it, too.
