Australian troops unlawfully killed 39 civilians and prisoners in Afghanistan over an 11-year period, the country’s military said on Thursday, offering an extraordinary public accounting of abuses that often remain hidden in distant war zones.

The killings were the result of a “distorted culture” and “toxic competitiveness” that took root among some of Australia’s most elite soldiers as they prepared to join American forces in Afghanistan, according to a report by the inspector general of the Australian Defense Force.

US and UK SAS enquiries needed

Every elite SF unit has toxic competitive culture like by definition

it’s only a big deal if America f***s up

Is the message this threads lack of activity gives off

Not surprised

entire 2nd squadron got struck off the order of battle

hopefully devgru gets the same treatment prob wishful thinking tho

Yes, generally people give more of a s*** if its their own country

Im Australian and appalled

Yeah not surprised they all doing war crimes

So many people are defending this, makes me sick

this and the video of the aus soldier shooting an unarmed farmer and then laugh about it, make me sick to my stomach. these animals invade other countries, commit a bunch of war crimes and then they come back home as heroes. sickening

China has strongly rebuked the UK, the US, Australia, New Zealand and Canada after being accused of a concerted effort to silence critics in Hong Kong.

The countries, which form the Five Eyes alliance, criticised China's imposition of new rules to disqualify elected legislators in Hong Kong.

A Chinese foreign ministry spokesman warned countries to stay out of China's affairs saying: "They should be careful or their eyes will be plucked out."

China is a different type of beast

you can't beat them because the west basically let them build a consumer and manufacturing economy

they literally sustain themselves now

Terrorists

let's see some prosecution happen

god f*** the new york times paywall

public beheading needed

American troops got away with the same s*** back in 2005. Gotta wonder how much other s*** the army and private contractors have done over the years

how is this relevant

RIP to the victims. The criminals should be made an international example and arrested

Just white things
