Today, the 22nd of August 2024, marks 100 days since army lawyer David McBride was imprisoned in Canberra for exposing war crimes committed by Australian forces in Afghanistan.

David stood up for truth and integrity, yet now he endures death threats and solitary confinement, while those responsible remain free.

This is not how we should treat our whistleblowers in Australia! ⚖️

    Mate, your countrymen agree with the war crimes. Why do you think you can free this man?

      Mate, come on… Why would you say such a libellous thing about my ‘countrymen’ (and -women)? Nobody likes serial killers and mass murderers. And what we loathe even more is corrupt top brass and politicians washing their hands of their responsibility in the war crimes. All we want is to live our lives in peace but we keep getting dragged into bloody wars by our [censored]* foreign partner and puppet politicians.

      *this information I gather lives on ‘documents in the safe’ which were scooped away from the court and the judge’s eyes due to ‘national security’ concerns.
