NOURNEWS - The new news that is being reported these days regarding the accusation of the Australian forces Dispatched to Afghanistan with intentional war crimes against the people of this war-torn country shows new dimensions of the crimes committed by Western countries.
An Australian judge recently confirmed the accusations of Australian veteran Ben Roberts-Smith that he was "a war criminal, a liar, and a persecutor" in Afghanistan and found these accusations to be completely true!
This is the first time an Australian court has assessed allegations of war crimes by Australian forces, because of that, many experts predict that we will see a lot of similar cases in the coming years.
In 2020, a landmark inquiry called the Brereton Report found, based on credible evidence, that Australian soldiers had unlawfully killed 39 innocent people in Afghanistan.
Ben Roberts-Smith was one of these soldiers who reportedly have intentionally shot and killed an Afghan teenager and threw another Afghan citizen from a height with his hands tied, which led to his death.
The important point is; Smith's trial was held in a civil court, not a military court!
Meanwhile; Some Australian and Western sources have considered the actions taken regarding the removal of the honorary titles of "Australian veteran" from this Australian soldier as a sign of directly confronting the war crimes of this soldier in order to make his crimes personal and not systematic nor organized.
Even the BBC, in a targeted report, praised the request to withdraw the prestigious "Victoria Cross" medal from Ben Roberts-Smith, in order to contribute to the induction of the said statement and to further remove the made accusation against the other countries present in the occupation of Afghanistan.
It seems; Beyond the publicity stunts that took place after the Australian veteran was proven guilty, there are other bitter truths that cannot be easily ignored.
One of these cases is related to the disproportion of the punishment of the murderers in comparison to the shocking crimes they have committed in Afghanistan.
Deprivation of titles of honor is definitely the most minimal and uncharacteristic punishment that can be considered in this regard, especially since many NATO veterans are now living in their own countries, despite committing various crimes against humanity in Afghanistan, including the killing of children, women, minors, and teenagers.
The next point is the use of misleading titles regarding the crimes committed by the occupiers, even the BBC, in one of its reports in this regard, used the word "calculation error" for the crimes committed by the occupying forces in targeting the people of Afghanistan!
The aim behind the sickening wordplays is to distort the facts and discharge Western murderers and criminals, this propaganda is happening thanks to the media silence of the ruling regime, systematic crimes have been committed during the two decades of NATO occupation in Afghanistan, many of which are still under wraps.
to put it more precisely; Attempts by the Western media to simplify these crimes and reduce them to personal mistakes are worse than the crimes themselves, which has become the dominant practice of the Western empire of lies for years.
