I remember clearly the rest of Australia not wanting to go to war. Pretty much it was just that little rat Johnny and his cronies
The traitor lied to parliament and used his own fabrications as the basis to attack a sovereign nation. Truly evil behaviour.
I remember marching against this stupid war and naturally the Howard government ignored public sentiment in favour of boot licking.
It’s so embarrassing how Australian governments appear to be so obsequious to US administrations. Surely you’d earn more brownie points by holding out for a while than being first to tow the line.
Those protests are still tbe biggest I have ever been a part of. It is so rare in Australia for that many people to take an interest in politics.
Howard: "Trust me. Bush says they have weapons of mass destruction."
