McBride’s intention was not to leak to expose war crimes, it was to show how troops were being unnecessarily hounded by legal etc , ie ‘over-zealous investigations of special forces’
The ABC discovered war crimes in the leaks and went down that path, ignoring McBride's initial reason for leaking the information.
Now McBride is allegedly playing a hero being victimised for exposing the war crimes.
