So my own suspicion is that the attorney has stopped this prosecution because part of her defence was to question legality and that would have brought his advice into the public domain again and there was something fishy about the way in which he said war was legal.

Summary

This quote suggests that the attorney halted the prosecution due to a potential strategy of questioning the legality of the matter, which could have made the advisor's advice on the legality of war public. The speaker finds it suspicious that the advisor confidently claimed war to be legal, hinting that there may be something dubious or questionable about the circumstances surrounding the legality of the war.
