It seems he wasn't whistleblowing to expose the war crimes but because he felt troops were beyond overinvestigated!

He was concerned that a couple grunts were going to get scapegoated for what a ton of absolute monsters were doing. Like Ben Roberts-Smith—decorated war hero who walks free today—uh, I need to spoiler/content warning this gorefest, said:

CW: gore, murder, what the fuck“I shot that removed in the head. [witness name redacted] told me not to kill anyone on the last job. So I pulled out my 9mm, shot the removed in the side of the head, blew his brains out. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.”

Yeah, that guy gets to walk free and get rich off public speaking engagements. McBride, though! Exposing that evil is malfeasance and needs to be PUNISHED!

You dome some kids for fun, so you can jerk off to it later? Victoria's Cross material, national hero. Tell the public about it? CRIMINAL.
