Sex changes, identity politics, gutless senior officers; heaven help us if these idiots are ever called on to defend Australia. They are too busy attacking their own personnel and expounding political correctness.

"The recommendation (stripping a whole unit of honours), accepted by Chief of Defence General Angus Campbell, is an affront to basic fairness. The notion that thousands of soldiers on different rotations into Afghanistan should bear collective responsibility for the alleged evil actions of 19 soldiers is preposterous. It taints and punishes decent soldiers who were not part of the atrocious findings in the Brereton report." (Janet Albrechtsen)

Campbell should be sacked.

It's not too often that I agree with, Binroy, but this time I do!

We cannot condone the murder of unarmed compliant civilians and Children! During the so-called, fog of war? We are not a nation nor people who do that!

Nor should we sit still while the government seemingly seeks to prosecute the whistleblower(s) in our name, for not losing his/their moral compass nor Christian conscience/duty!

We are not all Nazis or psychopaths! Devoid of empathy or conscience!

By their fruits ye shall know them!

Let's not allow the propagandised Chinese depiction of an Australian soldier (Satans servant) holding a knife to the throat of a child, become our epitaph, based on how we deal with what has been exposed and react to, as avowed Christians!

I just finished reading a book about the two Australian Divisions (7th and (9th) who attacked Lae in New Guinea and who drove the Japanese out of the town and over the snow capped Surawgad ranges. The Australians knew that thousands of Japanese would perish attempting the crossing as there was no food and the Japanese soldiers were not clothed to survive the below freezing temperatures.

Some Australians soldiers followed up the retreating Japanese and came across thousands of Japanese corpses, along with dozens of Japanese soldiers who were too weak go no any further and who were completely helpless.

These the Australian soldiers finished off.

It is a god thing that Binoy Kampmark was not around in 1943 to hurl brickbats at the Australian soldiers into who's country he and his family have chosen to live.

I think what Binoy is really getting at with his article criticizing the fact that no political or military leaders have been considered responsible for this alleged offence, is that there might still be some real soldiers left in the Australian Defense Forces who are not woke or transgender, and they won't have a bar of their soldiers undergoing sensitivity training.

It’s like this in reality; which is a reality totally the reverse of the Canberra cowboys.

The SAS mission for the night is to take captive a Taliban suspect and return him to the compound for questioning. Simple enough on the surface of it.

Off we go in total darkness, guided by technology, to the village of the suspect. A village well known for its sympathies towards the Taliban. Hostile country.

The first object is the village sentry, usually sleeping, and easily dispensed with, but not always.
The second objective is the hut of the suspect in the village. Again with the practiced art of stealth, the hut is entered without raising alarm.
The suspect is woken from his sleep by the tap of a muzzle at his face, and given the order to stand.
So far so good. Only one or two Taliban killed on this night.

The sleeping woman beside the suspected Taliban operative is his wife.
During the day, this suspect has been at war with our troops, with the firm intentions of killing them; at night he returns to the village for the comfort of his family.

The above is an ideal account of a typical night mission. But if you were one of the special forces tasked with the mission, and had recently lost a good mate to the Taliban evil forces, what might you do?
