Is there a handy mechanism for muting discussion of genocide by non-experts?

I used to be a U.S. Army JAG at Fort Bliss, Texas during the war years. Now the base is being transformed into an immigration hub. My take on habeas rights for migrants detained on U.S. military bases:

How about, if you’re not a subject matter expert, particularly on int’l criminal law, you just refrain from opining on this matter in the NYTIMES?
