John Singleton has spoken about his defence of war veteran Ben Roberts-Smith in a candid conversation with Erin Molan - and one question left her surprised.Under the heading “An apology to Ben Roberts-Smith . From a coward” Mr Singleton lauded the Victoria Cross winner’s “courage, strength, commitment”, which was published on page five of Saturday’s Weekend Australian.
“The fair story is that in a cave or hidden behind a desert rock, the SAS soldiers wait while innocent Afghans walk on past – are they innocent? Are they location mules?” he wrote.“In that awful moment the soldier has to react. Someone has to pull the trigger. Kill or be killed.”“They target big, tough, impressive VC winner... not given to showing any public exterior,” Mr Singleton wrote.He said that Mr Roberts-Smith “killed as soldiers do, but is now guilty of doing his job”.
Mr Singleton, who has been divorced seven times, has spoken candidly about his past relationships, admitting he is “incapable” of marriage.
