BREAKING: Court documents reveal that Australian government war crimes investigators do not even have the NAMES of two individuals Ben Roberts-Smith is alleged to have killed in Afghanistan almost 20 years ago.
Nobody has managed to identify these alleged victims - even after $300 million was spent on war crimes investigations over five years.
Australian Office of Special Investigations director Ross Barnett already revealed that investigators have:
- No crime scenes
- No access to the deceased
- No bodies
- No post-mortem report
- No official cause of death
- No recovery of projectiles to link to weapons that might have been carried by members of the ADF
- No photographs
- No site plans
- No measurements
- No recovery of projectiles
- No blood spatter
Now we know that after nearly $300 million and 5 years of investigation, they do not even have the NAMES of two alleged victims.
If there is no name, no identification, no body - how do we even know they were killed?
Does anybody actually think this is fair?
Does anybody actually think that a criminal conviction - proved to a criminal standard, beyond reasonable doubt - is remotely possible in these circumstances?
Daily Mail: ''Two of the five men Ben Roberts-Smith is accused of murdering while serving with the Special Air Service in Afghanistan have never been identified by war crimes investigators.
Court documents seen by the Daily Mail show one of the Victoria Cross recipient's alleged victims is described only as 'Person Under Control 1', or alternatively 'Enemy Killed in Action 3'.''

I've started a petition in support of Ben Roberts-Smith and we've had more than 5,000 signatures in just a few hours: drewpavlou.com.au/brs
I am sick of the culture of self-hatred and self-loathing that stalks Australia.
The US spent $300 million to save one downed airman in Iran.
Australia meanwhile spent $300 million to prosecute our most decorated Afghan War veteran and charge him with war crimes.
Our government literally paid for billboards and newspaper advertisements in Afghanistan advertising rewards if random people came forward with war crimes allegations against Australian soldiers.
Australian Office of Special Investigations director Ross Barnett said the following about the case: “We don’t have access to the crime scenes. We don’t have photographs, site plans, measurements, the recovery of projectiles, blood spatter. We don’t have access to the deceased. There’s no post-mortem report, there’s no official cause of death, there’s no recovery of projectiles to link to weapons that might have been carried by members of the ADF.”
This case is a joke.
There is a sickness at the heart of our civilisation.
We are a country and civilization with no will to live.

Especially today, my instinctive sympathy remains with all of our special forces soldiers from the Afghanistan campaign, fighting at our country’s command against a merciless enemy, often under highly restrictive rules of engagement that meant known terrorists were captured and released many times.
As prime minister during multiple deployments, and having spent time with our troops in war-zones, I could not have asked for a more loyal and professional military and my respect for their service is undiminished.
Of course, there are rules that have to be observed and enforced, even against soldiers in times of war. Still, it’s wrong to judge the actions of men in mortal combat by the standards of ordinary civilian life.
If Ben Roberts-Smith transgressed, why wasn’t this picked up prior to his gallantry awards and why wasn’t any culture of brutality towards prisoners detected by his more senior officers, and dealt with quickly, rather than being allowed to fester, as has been alleged, for over a decade?
The Brereton investigation commenced in 2016 and only concluded in 2020. The first war crime charge against a former special forces soldier was only laid in 2023 and three years later, this has still not been finalised.
After doing their best to serve our country, dozens of former special forces soldiers should not still be in limbo years later because of ongoing investigations that have only resulted in charges in two cases.
Justice delayed is justice denied. If evidence is clear, and cases are strong, they should be brought and concluded without delay. Otherwise, people should be cleared to get on with their lives lest the process itself become the punishment.
In Afghanistan, our soldiers fought bravely and well for a just cause. I am very sorry that some of them have been subjected to a form of persecution by the country they served.

@MurrayWatt Do you really think we’re that stupid that we’d believe you? Bugger off.

BREAKING: Top Australian journalist, Professor Peter van Onselen, calls Prime Minister Anthony Albanese a vote buying coward. What do you say?

Australians are tightening their belt as they stare down $3 a litre fuel, but the government isn’t.
The government keeps throwing away tens of billions of dollars on people who don’t need support under the NDIS.
The NDIS was originally budgeted at $14 billion a year. This year, it will cost $50 billion. If it keeps going, the cost will reach $100 billion - double what we spend on Defence.
The scheme was poorly designed and has been left open to fraud, waste and abuse.
If we don’t rein it in it will send the country broke.

I'm just back in the USA from living for years in Australia. The complete erosion of civil rights, leadership that opened the borders to hostile foreigners, kowtowing to China, and allowing foreigners to buy up the real estate while Australians live in tents. The Left has conquered most states and drives policies that are make Australia weak and vulnerable.
A major terrorist attack on iconic Bondi Beach by Muslim terrorists. The government's reaction? Make speech against Muslims and other foreign invaders illegal. Give more land title rights to Aboriginals so they can on-sell to China. Continue forcing policies and speech to make white Australians - whose ancestors turned Australia into a first-world country - feel guilty so they'll allow themselves to be manipulated and robbed.
Australian interests are not being served at all. And the majority of Australians just shrug.
Since 2022, I was actively and heavily discriminated against in business and even in conversations with random strangers. Not because I'm black - because I'm an American.
It was time to come home.
I still love Australia - and the UK - another country where I've lived. But unless Australia gets behind an Aussie version of Rupert Lowe, I suggest you all learn Mandarin and Arabic.
We Americans are no longer supporting people who treat us with disrespect. You're on your own.

From Martin Iles, reposted:
Having lived in the USA for nearly two years, I've realised something.
The USA and the remainder of the Western world are no longer aligned.
We all laugh and mock when the Americans say, "Freedom!" because we truly think we're as free as they are.
Wrong. We're not. Not even close. The laws, the mindset, and the behaviour, is totally different in this regard.
Most of all, the governments are totally different. The USA's convictions around core freedoms are on a scale we do not share.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump wins the popular vote, the electoral college, the House, and the Senate... a man who, in every other Western country, is held in open derision, if not contempt.
For these and other reasons, we are not the same.
Yet the West, including Australia, fully expect to rely on the USA for our very survival.
If the world turns bad (which will happen - only a question of time), then the whole West, without America, is toast.
So, you may ask - if we're not very aligned ideologically, then it must be that we bring something to the party militarily?
Well, no... actually... we don't matter that much militarily.
The USA has about 470 ships in its navy, including 11 aircraft carriers, 69 submarines, 75 destroyers... plus 110 new ships in the pipeline.
Australia has about 30, including 3 destroyers, 7 frigates and 7 outdated submarines. The UK does a little better, with about 60.
Meanwhile, the US has over 14,000 military aircraft. A staggering number.
Australia has 252 military aircraft. The UK has 556.
The US army has just shy of 1,000,000 uniformed personnel in its military. Australia has about 45,000.
The USA spends 3.4% ($968 billion) of its GDP on defence. Australia spends 2% ($36.4 billion). The US spends as much as the next 15 largest military-spending countries (including China) combined.
The USA has a fighting culture. The men shoot things (a lot) and hunt things, the veterans get favoured in everything from parking spots to boarding planes. A uniformed young man is thanked in the street a dozen times a day.
"Oh, the Americans and their guns!" we say, in our smug way. Yes, they have a warrior culture. We do not. We don't have to, because we're a leech on theirs.
How many young British men are willing to fight for their country? Now ask the same regarding young American men. The difference is about as wide as it could be.
Militarily, we don't offer squat.
Meanwhile, look at the way Australia works against America's interests by loving on China. China made us rich and we stay close. This is a Marxist regime with expansionist aims.
Again, you have to spend time in the USA to realise just how vast a gulf there is between us on China.
Europe, too. They let China have their way everywhere from Germany to Greenland, all the while importing Islam and sending their own people to court for saying hurty words.
Somehow, we have landed the deal of a lifetime with the USA that says, "when the baddies come, you'll save us ok?" Because we can't save ourselves.
And we live in peace. But we keep gnawing away at freedoms, keep enabling China, and get flabby and disinterested about our military because Uncle Sam's got it.
And, let's be honest, Americans are widely looked down on. To add insult to injury, we don't think that highly of our protectors.
So, the USA is finally saying "enough." I am here, I can tell you what the vibe is, and that's it. Trump is doing what people want in this regard. They're over it.
And we come across all shocked and hard done by. We behave like people with no self-insight at all.
Yes, the global alliance system is all over the place now. From America's perspective, it's about time.
And I must say, though I be a proud Australian, I am forced to agree. Something has to change.

As an Iranian watching this rescue mission unfold, I was praying the American pilot would make it out alive, not just for him, but so the Islamic Republic could not use him as a bargaining chip or claim some twisted “victory.”
At the same time, I felt a deep envy.
Your government sent elite special forces, million-dollar aircraft, and moved heaven and earth to bring one American home. No hesitation. No excuses.
In Iran, the regime uses human shields and recruited child soldiers to clear minefields during the Iran-Iraq war. They treat their own people like disposable tools. They are now recruiting child soldiers as we speak.
The Islamic Republic has zero regard for human life. That’s the brutal difference.
One side risks everything to save their own.
The other sacrifices their own to stay in power.
This hits hard when you have lived under both realities.
