I’m under the impression it’s not costing him anything.
His all but broke.

Corporal’s aren’t exactly well paid.

Goodbye Angus, goodbye the nation party.

Enemy.

We sent them to kill the enemy.
They did. Good.

only in your head. They were sent to defeat the enemy, not kill them. There's a difference

No there isn't.

the fact that war crimes tribunals even exist proves just what a moron you are

This is NOT a war tribunal, thicko.

This is NOT even a criminal trial. This is a civil case about defamation. Threshold of proof is very law.

Defeating the enemy requires a convincing amount of killing, thicko bellend. That is why they give soldiers lethal weapons.

You were the one said "They were sent to defeat the enemy, not kill them." Dufus.

"This meant that if you were an Afghan riding a motorcycle in a certain fashion near Australian troops, or were seen talking on a radio or mobile phone, you could be considered fair game.

The documents seen by the ABC stress that mere suspicion, or instinct, was not enough, though. There had to be a solid basis for that suspicion, based on knowledge of insurgent “tactics, techniques and procedures”."

.....

"On that occasion, one of the dead men, Mullah Janan Akhund, was seen talking on a radio as an Australian helicopter was about to land, then “assessed by SOTG members to be manoeuvring to gain tactical advantage through a covered position and potentially accessing a cache of weapons”.

He was shot multiple times in the head and chest by two Australians, including Victoria Cross winner Ben Roberts-Smith."

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-07-11/afghan-files-australias-secretive-rules-o...

And yet only Ben Roberts-Smith was pilloried. I guess it was the VC wotdunnit. Wink

Only he was so big in the head with the wealth/influence of his Father and Mates (Stokes) to start the

sh

it fight. Dumb is as dumb does.

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

Take out the most visible. Roll Eyes

I'm glad he did 'fight.' It brought him undone, because he did the deeds, and for no other reason. When yer own mates in the Army desert you, you should know the best thing to do is bunker down in retirement with your VC still on your chest, and just ignore the noise.

Nah, BRS thought he was above all that because Daddy is Daddy and Daddy has powerful mates with very long pockets.

Zero sympathy from me and full on antagonism/scorn/derision/get the bastard, big ~ and also get all the bastards above him who allowed the climate to exist. He will be done by the Military when he has exhausted all appeals. At the very least, the VC will be taken off his chest, and he will also be in a prison.

He cannot survive (unless the High Court does something extraordinarily remarkable) the scathing, fatal findings of the original Court and those of the Appeal Court.
