WAR CRIMES - Ben Roberts Smith, page-14

i agree wit you to a point.

But you don't know if we are guilty of war crimes or not and its neither your nor my decision to say we are or are not - its also not your or my decision to say its not systemic. Trust our courts they make the decision not social media.

Also past examples of war crimes don't justify current ones and they never should - we have evolved as a species and we need to hold ourselves to a higher standard than our forefathers. This goes for every country including Aust, US and China and UK

Saying that I do agree that its a brave call calling out a fellow soldier (in current environment) - but I need to challenge the idea that it should be "brave". It shouldn't be - we all have a moral compass you know what a crime is and so do I even in war - better protections need to be in place to speak up.

The one positive out of this is that we went public (probably wasnt intentional) so we are holding ourselves accountable
