    Breathtakingly sad. Afghans have been crying for years. Terrorised by night raids; disappearances. #AfghanLivesMatter Report finds Australian troops unlawfully killed 39 Afghans (from @AP)https://apnews.com/article/7d73ce2ff249f70fb19c1c4fd522785a …

        Reading the report on Australian war crimes in Afghanistan reminds me of this excellent piece on Clint Lorance by @natepenn. The 1st argument is "I didn't do it." The 2nd is even worse: "I did it, but it's fine because everyone did it."https://story.californiasunday.com/clint-lorance-court-martial-pardon-the-last-patrol …

        @natepenn - I don't know if they know the level to which the second argument is worse. The idea that entire enterprise is evil, and therefore absolves individuals who participated in it, removes agency from the guilty and ignores the choices of those who didn't commit war crimes.

        Yes. It is very sad and bad what happened. But as we can see, once the foreign troops have gone, Taliban reclaim the territory. So, in retrospect, better to leave this country alone?

        The world did not think that all the superpowers will go to Afg well equipped and armed and get chased out by bunch of Tribal Motorcyclists. Tank vs A man on a bike with a RPG. What a shame for western powers.

        Regret and excuse does not bring those who were killed by your un professional soliders, so you have to pay the victims' families and request them come Austurlia for a better life

        The #Australian Government must compensate with the families of the victims and punish those who committed these crimes. No one else owns the right to forgive them.

        And it is damn certain that 39 is an incredibly, tragically understated number
