How do they feel comfortable admitting to such crimes PUBLICALLY?

I think it's because they won't face any consequences for their crimes. Makes it every easy to confess/brag when you know nothing bad will happen to you. Much like you can have many soldiers from western countries (like US or Australia) admit to/be exposed for their war crimes in the middle east/other countries and they're either celebrated for their crimes or the whistleblowers are punished.
