Law suits and the President

Nice try Sidd, but what is "defence services" :


4(a)(2)(A) The President is authorized to direct the drawdown of defense articles from the stocks of the Department of Defense, defense services of the Department of Defense, and military education and training for such organizations.


It is the provision of troops. Clearly.
It would be clear except for the specific language in Section 8 saying no use of US armed forces. One of the canons of statutory construction is that specific language controls over more general language.

Clearly.
