I'm pretty sure he thought war crimes were happening, he just thought they were investigating the wrong soldiers to cover up for higher-ranking and more decorated soldiers like Ben Roberts-Smith to pretend that they cared about war crimes
Is honestly pretty unambiguous wording.
And the other evidence against your claim is, why would McBride had been pissed off by the ABC's reporting of his leaked files? If you were right, the ABC's angle would be completely aligned with McBride's. Why would Oakes allege there was disagreement there?
I think he'd be pissed off at the ABC for missing the point and just covering the war crimes, effectively covering up the arses of those higher up.
