Stephan: Were you equally vocal about the war in Bosnia?

Bill As the husband of a recently ex-member of our military (my wife has recently left the Air Force), I fully support our forces in the Gulf doing their job - engaging a perceived (rightly or wrongly) enemy at the behest of our government. My issue is solely with our government here in Australia and in particulr with our PM, who I think is an immoral, lying deceiver whose whole motivation is with maintaining a relationship as a minor partner in any US-UK-AU alliance. I'm at a loss as to where that alliance is headed - are they after oil, do they want to break off from the UN, or does Dubya simply have Howard and Blair fooled into believing his rhetoric? As someone INTIMATELY familiar with the dichotomy of supporting forces (as the husband of an ex-member of the military and the son of a Vietnam vet) and supporting the action the forces are involved in. In this case, I DON'T, and will NEVER support the cause. Should the unlikely situation occur that the forces currently in Iraq DO discover weapons of mass destruction (biological, chemical or nuclear), I will STILL not support the action as it stands as my belief is that it is illegal under the UN Charter and current UN Security Council resolutions. What I will acknowledge should such a discovery take place is that the UNSC were WRONG, and should have sanctioned the action.
