Ergh, probably need to start drafting a letter telling my local Labor member that I think it would be a shit idea to throw actual support at this nonsense and that it would be a self-own to chuck a Howard and follow the US down the rabbit hole, hopefully they just stick with "thoughts and prayers" for this one ..

    Please do. I did so yesterday. I am sure many within Labor hate it too, but the federal government needs to feel the pressure of this colossal fuckup, so they know that the Australian people still take international law very seriously.

    As if there's not enough military violence in the world, our government has to support more? Is this the best we can do?
