It's a fact innocent Afghans were killed. That's not normal and Australian soldiers don't usually do that but it happens.

Military discipline is enough. Whistle blowing ex army lawyers were subject to military laws and state secrets.

Obviously after Al Qaeda was gone there wasn't a clear reason to be there. In that way village boys spotting for the Taliban were simply defending their village. Killing them shouldn't be something that happens but it does.

The immorality is actually being there in the first place putting those guys in that circumstance. in that way compensation should be paid to the villagers. Thing is it is the politicians that escape responsibility.
