    So it’s either A:

    • David McBride is an idiot who misinterpreted what was happening as a defence lawyer investigating war crimes
    • War crimes happened
    • Commanders and Politicians aren’t smart enough to cover up war crimes committed by PR exercises like Ben Roberts-Smith by investigating otherwise innocent soldiers

    Or B:

    • David McBride is not an idiot
    • War crimes happened
    • Commanders and Politicians are smart enough to attempt to cover up war crimes committed by the likes of Ben Roberts-Smith (Australia’s most decorated soldier, was used to ‘sell’ the war to Australians).

    I choose B, but hey, you know better because of some random BBC article and an ABC hit piece
