War crimes confirmed
Jun 18^th, 2021 at 6:26pm

Quote:

Afghanistan war crimes report released by Defence Chief Angus Campbell includes evidence of 39 murders by special forces
The long-running probe found "credible information" that 25 current or former Australian Defence Force personnel were involved in the serious crimes, either carrying out the offences or at least being "accessories" to the incidents.

The report recommends a total of 36 incidents be referred to the Australian Federal Police (AFP) for criminal investigation.

Guns don't kill

.

Try telling that to the gun control lobby and Mr B. Ross

Are you expecting soldiers to be saints when they come from a society that is peppered with murderers, domestic violence killers, child abuse, violent road rage thugs, Islamic street murderers, pedophile priests, rapists in Parliament rooms, jailed politicians, drug abuse and trafficking, motorists taking out pedestrians young and old, drink driving, cyber crime and scams, financial deception and fraud, etc

This is what soldiers are defending, a society like that. How much thanks do we give them? A punch in the nose, that's what we give them

I wouldn't blame them if they all went on strike

Guns don't kill. Psychopaths recruited by the military and police and other dark agencies kill without compunction.

Guns are just inanimate objects until they become instruments of death in the hands of psychopaths.

Must be a high percentage of psychopaths is the US civilian population.

Courier Mail today - paywalled.

Quote:

In November, after the Brereton Report was released, ADF chief Angus Campbell made a public apology to the nation about the SAS soldiers’ alleged conduct and then-Defence Minister Linda Reynolds described their actions as “coldblooded murder”.

Ms Reynolds backed out of appearing on Hadley’s show yesterday and wrote in instead saying “I have never accused any individual” of war crimes.

Hadley demanded on air: “When will you apologise?

“These men had no opportunity to defend themselves, some of them were press-ganged into arriving and giving evidence at the Brereton Inquiry.

“They were given no help in relation to their legal standing and they were hung, drawn and quartered by the report without the opportunity of it being tested in either a civil court or a criminal court and for that, Linda Reynolds, you stand condemned,” he said.

Campbell & Reynolds - both shameful bastards..

just like those here that were baying for their blood .... including the author of this thread. Roll Eyes

Nah.

What eye witnesses and what confessions? Certainly none mentioned in the ABC article.
