What an phenomenal fuck-up! There is now absolutely no way for a "dignified exit from Iraq", and U.S. forces will have no influence on what happens in Iraq the day after its forces leave, whether they leave immediately or five years from now. _ Dusty Davo from Derrimut

Does protecting "our way of life" include shoving broken flashlights up people's arses? Does it include smashing chemical light globes and pouring the phosphoric liquid over people? Does it include forced sexual abuse and torture? Does it include murder? If so, then what's the difference between "us" and Saddam Hussein's goons? Hey, at least Saddam had Islamist fanatics under control and the electricity and water running!

Yeah but will it stop the pains in the ass like you!

Who could be more ill-equipped to conduct a war against those who commit terror in the name of God than a man in the White House who commits terror in the name of God?

What goes around, comes around. History has marked John W Howard well. As he once ominusly said: "the times will suit me". And what treacherous, duplicitous times they are!

I've read around 40 SAS personnel (trained at a cost to the Australian taxpayer at $2 Million a pop!) have resigned since the U.S. occupation of Iraq and have gone into "private practice". So much for the "spirit of ANZAC"!

And Rubert Brooke was an ignorant twit!

That smarmy old fuck Bush jr is the one with his dick hanging out to fucken dry. And its just about chopped right fucken off in fricken Iraq!

Bush MUST be impeached. Blair MUST be sacked. And Johnny Germ MUST be shot from a cannon somewhere over the Timor sea.

You can't "spread democracy" with violence, intidimidation, ignorance and greed as your chief tools. You can, however, spread the current, bastardised, corrupt U.S. version of "democracy".

Saddam used intimidation and violence to consolidate his power, the U.S. uses intimidation and violence to consolidate their power; Saddam locked up political prisoners without recourse to law or jusitice, the U.S. locks up political prisoners without recourse to law of justice; Saddam tortured victims for the hell of it, the U.S. tortures victims for the hell of it; Saddam opposed Islamic rule, the U.S. opposes Islamic rule... So, what's all this crap about "democracy' again?!

Iraq: mercenary heaven! The U.S. occupation of Iraq was always about oil and money: four Aussie SAS soldiers who fought in Iraq 12 months ago are back in the country working as private operators for AKE, a British-based international security group. And that's just the tip of a humungous bloody iceberg. Fuck 'em all.

In the end all I can do is scream "Leave me alone you fucking bastards!". And if they don't... if they don't... ???

Beats Les Murray. Maybe Johnny Germ will hire you as Australia's national poet?

Doesn't count as there is no war on there.
In fact they were just giving them a lift home.

"Why should we hear about body bags and deaths. Oh, I mean, it's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"
- Barbara Bush (The US Presidunce's mom) on ABC's "Good Morning America" on March 18, 2003

Tucked under the text of the November 15 agreements were enough safeguards to lock in US power over the subsequent transitional government and ensure that even after June 30, the US would - for all intents and purposes - still be calling the shots. As one senior White House official told the New York Times then: "We'll have more levers than you think, and maybe more than the Iraqis think."

Fuck the Galipolli "Anzac' myth. Its about time Ozsies woke up to themselvs and realised they've been war whores - includin the current token Iraq thingy : Kelly

What goes around comes around

And what of the Israeli army using Palestinian kids as "human shields" by making them sit on their armoured cars? Hmm?

is that one "My kingdom for a horse"?

Less like Macbeth and more like Richard the Third!

Cheney

I have a pack of cards with George W Bush as the Jester, (a useless card, as anyone knows). Any suggestions for who should be the King of Farts?

You really must check you spelling, Patriot. You clearly meant to say Aussies in Iraq are "farting the good fart"! In future please be more careful.

The old slimeball is hardly going to attend an ANZAC service in NAURU now, is he?!

I'm a n*g*e* and I yah nyah nyha na

What a FUCKEN wanker! If the PMs so damn keen on proving he's a player in this Iraq war bullshit then its about time he stopping fucking around and got serious. Come on, let's see him send 25,000 troops into that shitstorm in a real - rather than token - participation in this US occupatio of an Arab nation. Yeah, go on, you suckhole of steel! Let's see you re-introduce conscription too, while you're at it!
ANGRY DOG

So when an we expect another reluctant motley "Coalition of the Willing" to gather for a U.S. attack on say, Iran or Syria?

But hey, why not just drop the fucken charade and just start dumping napalm and mini-nukes on Gaza and the West Bank? I mean, that's what this shit is really all about anyway!
ANGRY DOG

Johnny Germ keeps carping about "completing the task", "finishing the job" and staying the course", but he won't tell us is what exactly does THAt bloody well MEAN?! If he had any balls at all he'd tell the nation under precisely what criteria will our PM consider the task completed?

Come on Johnny, WHAT cpnstitutes "mission accomplished" in Iarq? Or are you still awaiting instructions from the Bush regime?

_Dusty Davo from Derrimut

ahhhh your just jealous you didnt go.
PM Howard always respects the sanctity of ANZAC day.

I bet you were on that plane-load of channel nine suckholes with the slimey PM, dodging bullets and falafels on the tarmac, right?!

HEY NOW MAN'S OWN KIN

GRATEFUL SOUL HE'S GONE AGAIN

What is "the job", and what are the criteria for "finishing" it? Blair don't know, Howard can't say, and Dubya can barely read his script anyhoo! But hey: Bush broke it, he can bloody well fix it but shouldm't expect anyone else ot help pay for the damage!

I wanna see some colateral damage in Washington, like: Bush and his gang of robber barons getting voted from office and cast into the garbage bin of history where they belong!

"We" are not in Iraq. "We" are sitting on my balcony, cold beer in hand, watching cockatoos glide through the green canopy of gum trees as sunset turns the sky a soothing smokey blue.

There are more mercenaries in Iraq today than there are British troops - an estimated 40,000 "security contractors".

Oops, forgot to post this link, which I'm pretty damn sure will interest anyone fond of flags, uniforms, national anthems, unilateral invasion of out of favour little nations, and other such porridge:

Enjoy, Patriot!

Cut and run? Don't yu mean "cunt and runt?" Too late! And how the hell can a duplicitous dwarf stand tall? That aside, mate, take a gander at this, which explains why America is a total and unmitigated basket case threatening global stability:

"...public perceptions about Iraq, or at least about the threat it posed before the U.S. invasion, are lagging far behind what acknowledged experts have themselves concluded and whose findings have been reported in the mass media..."

"We" are in Iraq to save Sharon's evil ass and crush all hope of a Palestinian state.

Democracy?! Dont make me puke! This is psycho plutocracy with a big frikkn stick! And dont those poor frikkn Irakis know it now!

Good one Max! If Johnny Germ was so "committed" to "staying the course" and "getting the job done" in Iraq, you'd reckon he'd send more than just a few hundred ADF personnel, wouldn't you! It's all a mighty con job. For fucksake, the Poles have more troops over there than we do! And you've got to ask yourseld: what the fuck are the Hondurans doing over there anyway?!?!!!!

Jolly Roger

AND WHAT IF THEY FART AT THE SAME TIME? SURELY THAT IS THE wmd WE HAVE OFTEN HEARD OF!

lemon squeeze

Agree

Rob

Why the fuck are we on this earth at all? Often I wish someone would shoot me. How much do you get as a mercenary? Where does one apply; I want to help spread democracy as well! what the hell is there to do? Besides, all of those cunts kneeling down en masse and bowing is freaky. Rob

This also is very much to the point:

"When the BBC's reporters covered the atrocities in Madrid last month their horror and outrage were palpable ... I have seen nothing comparable in BBC1 reporting on Falluja. Where is the sense of outrage and horror at the killing of 600 and wounding of 1700 Iraqis, including many women and children, by a high-tech superpower?"

The Bush regime is fanning the flames of terrorism and is making an international pariah of the USA.

In his new book on the criminal Bush cartel, ground-breaking reporter Bob Woodward relates that Colin Powell believed the U.S. government had been seized by a "Gestapo office" of neoconservatives directed by Cheney. Perhaps this is what the astute Mr Gross is cheekily referring to with his juxtaposed photo of fawning Hitler-worshippers.
